Overview

At forty-seven, Claire isn't looking for a grand reinvention. She's looking for a quiet place to breathe. So when she inherits a tired little seaside inn in Pelican Cove, she does what any sensible woman with a cracked heart and a maxed-out stress meter would do: She runs. The inn is charming in that ""barely holding it together"" kind of way - salty windows, stubborn plumbing, and a guest book full of opinions nobody asked for. Claire tells herself she'll fix it up, sell it fast, and go back to her normal life. Then Jack shows up. Jack is steady. Local. The kind of man who knows how to repair a porch step, calm a panicked guest, and read people a little too well. He also happens to be the one person Claire hoped she'd never have to face again - because years ago, he was the almost-love she never quite got over. Now they're stuck in close quarters: paint fumes, repair lists, early-morning coffee runs, and the weird intimacy that happens when you're both pretending you're fine. But Pelican Cove is a small town. People talk. Old mistakes don't stay buried. And Claire's inn isn't the only thing with a few hidden cracks. As the grand reopening deadline closes in, Claire has to decide what scares her more: Putting her heart on the line... Or walking away from the one man who still feels like home. A sweet, closed-door later-in-life romance filled with beach-town charm, cozy inn vibes, and a second chance worth risking everything for.
