After a public career setback, corporate event planner Claire Bennett returns to her seaside hometown to oversee a high-profile business retreat at Harbor Point Conference Center. What she doesn’t expect is the venue owner: Ethan Mercer, the man she nearly married twenty years ago before choosing ambition over love.
As storms trap guests and force Claire and Ethan to work side by side, old feelings resurface alongside painful misunderstandings neither of them ever truly left behind. Now, Claire must decide whether success still means chasing the next opportunity—or finally choosing the life, and the love, that has been waiting for her all along.
A heartfelt later-in-life second-chance romance about ambition, forgiveness, and finding the courage to stay.
