They're just friends...until one kiss changes everything.
After a messy divorce, Gwen Parker retreats to idyllic Hazel Island to start a new life. She has no time for relationships now, not when she has a bed and breakfast to run.
No matter that her friend, the gruff and ruggedly handsome Jack Benson, makes her yearn for more.
Yet Gwen knows that she's too broken from her first marriage to risk heartbreak a second time.
Jack Benson prefers to live a solitary life. As a fisherman, he's well-aware that relationships, like the tides, come and go.
Gwen is special, though. She makes him want a different life, one that he never thought he'd want.
But Jack can never act on his attraction to Gwen and risk ruining their friendship.
When temptation proves to be too much, Jack and Gwen can no longer ignore the heat between them.
As the past rears its ugly head, can these two friends let go of old heartbreaks to embrace a newfound love?
The paperback edition includes the bonus novella
One Perfect Summer.
