In this steamy contemporary romance about family, unforeseen circumstances, and unexpected love, an ex-military man and a down-on-her-luck woman find more than they bargained for when they find each other.

When Chad Young moves home, it’s not a decision he makes lightly. A former military man, he doesn’t make any decision lightly. But his father’s passing has left the family—and their business—reeling. Now more than ever, they need to stick together.

Britt Starkweather moved to Maine with her boyfriend, never imagining he’d abandon her there. With no money and nowhere to go, she accepts the Youngs’ offer of a job and room on their property. What more does she have to lose?

Although they just met, Chad makes Britt feel safe in a way no one has before. And she makes him feel things he’d given up on finding. But even as they grow closer, Britt realizes that something is amiss at Lobster Cove…and Chad will do whatever it takes to keep her safe.

Oh wow, another great book, I can so relate to Evelyn. I lost my husband 12 years ago and I’ve been by myself doing everything by myself. I do have boys, but they don’t live in the same town I do, and I’m 72, she just resonated with me more than any character in a long time. Looking forward to the next books.

the story was okay..but everything happened way too quickly to be believable. Also the story about the neighbor's daughter and grandkid seemed completely irrelevant to the story.

good story..but not very believable

5⭐️ 3🌶️ 5🎧 Lobster Cove and the Young brothers are dreamy! This found family, forced proximity, workplace romance with the added element of suspense made for one very good story!

Chad and Britt were so cute together and had chemistry since their first meeting in a parking lot. Britt found herself quickly in a pickle and thanks to the Young family found her way out just as quickly. I loved how Chad and his family took her and treater her like family from the very beginning.

Teddy Hamilton and Lucy Rivers narrate this audiobook, and they did a fantastic job! I’ve listened to Lucy a couple times now and I enjoy listening to her. Teddy is one of my favorites, I will listen to him read literally anything! I loved how they still had two narrators even though the story is written in 3rd person POV.

Romance AND Suspense! Sign me up!!

The formula that Susan has fallen into was disappointing.

I had a hard time getting through this audiobook. The characters, story line, and conflicts seem all too familiar. Teddy, always good, female narrator was fair.

Susan has had great series; this one may need more distinction to rise to the level of some of her others, such as Ace, Hawaii, and Eagle Point etc.

Maine was good but wanted more from the story and characters.
