The Harbor Retreat (The Stonington Tides #1)

She bought the cabin to get away. She never expected to find someone worth staying for.Heartbroken and humiliated after a life of being unlucky in love, Josie Taylor flees to the rugged and stormy shores of Stonington, Maine to nurse her wounds and forget about her cruel destiny as a hopeless romantic. A cozy small town where nobody knows her past is the ideal place to make a fresh start—but some of the locals aren’t too keen on her arrival.

Sam Porter hates outsiders. As a surly recluse who hides from the tourists of the summer months, he’s hardly the man to make Josie feel welcome. She’s determined not to let his attitude dampen her spirits—and as she begins to unravel a surprising new side to the man, they soon find solace from their troubles in each other’s arms... even if she’s afraid to take the plunge and open her heart again.

Too bad her past isn’t quite ready to let her go—and between her ex-husband rearing his head and her free-spirited sister arriving with a business plan that’s as wild as it is risky, Josie is quickly caught in turbulent waters. Can she weather the storm and create a bright new future in this salty & seafaring town? Or will her hope for a second chance be dashed on the rocky cliffs?

Take the plunge into a delightful and wholesome seaside romance with themes of fresh beginnings and later-in-life love. With a dash of tantalizing mystery and plenty of feel-good emotions, The Harbor Retreat is a memorable series that will warm your heart with all the charms of the sea.
