Book Blurb
A seaside romance about second chances, healing tides and finding home where you least expect it.
When Isobel ‘Izzy’ Hartley walks away from her high-powered London career – and her long-term relationship – she’s not sure what she is running towards. All she knows is that Camber, on the South Coast with its wind-swept dunes and weathered cottages, offers the escape she desperately needs.
She doesn’t expect to collide with Arthur ‘Art’ Matthews, a guarded, ex-professional surf star with a past he won’t talk about. Art has buried himself in the quiet coastal life, hiding from the loss he’s never truly faced.
However, the sea has a way of healing, revealing truths once hidden. As summer unfolds on the Sussex coast, Izzy and Art are pushed together by the tide and the possibility that life could be more than they have settled for.
When the past resurfaces and choices must be made, will Izzy risk the shadows of the past, or embrace the possibility of a love filled future?
A heartfelt slow burn romance about letting go, starting over and discovering what dreams are really made of: When you stop chasing success, you might just find happiness.
