A Safe Haven

NEW SERIES! Escape to the charming beachside town of Sandcastle Cove where gentle breezes and beautiful coastal views provide a sanctuary for those seeking new beginnings and a second chance at love.

The quiet beach town of Sandcastle Cove, South Carolina, is usually safe from crime. However, as the summer season opens, reports of vandalism are on the rise. When Officer Shelby Hansen heads to the beach to investigate damage done to a lifeguard station, she comes face-to-face with the irate head guard who doesn’t think she’s up to the task of finding the offender. Joe Roman, a retired Navy diver, sets out to do his own investigation, butting up against Shelby at every turn. She warns him to back down, but his ties to the lifeguard station run too deep. Despite the conflict he’s causing with the fiery officer, he can’t sit by and let someone get away with damaging it.

Though their relationship got off to a rocky start, Shelby starts to warm to the idea of letting Joe help solve the mystery, especially since that means spending more time with him. She never thought she’d care for another man again, but the more she learns about him, the more her heart opens. However, when other crimes start popping up in Sandcastle Cove, Shelby starts to question if Joe is a victim after all. Joe never intended to stay in Sandcastle Cove forever, but after getting to know Shelby, he can’t imagine leaving. As evidence starts pointing in his direction, he is determined to prove he isn’t a criminal. Not only to clear his name, but to save his future with Shelby.
