Tides of second chances (Hatteras Bay Romance Series, #1)

She left him to chase her dreams. He never stopped waiting. Now fate is giving them one more chance.

Natalie Morgan had it all-a corner office in Manhattan, a seven-figure salary, and the respect of Wall Street's elite. But when her mother's Alzheimer's diagnosis forces her home to the small coastal town she fled twenty-three years ago, Natalie comes face-to-face with the one thing success couldn't replace: Cooper Hayes, the man whose heart she broke on prom night.

Cooper built a good life in Hatteras Bay. He runs the family marina, volunteers with local kids, and is beloved by everyone in town. What he doesn't have is the one woman he's never been able to forget-the girl who chose her dreams over him and never looked back.

Their reunion is anything but simple. Cooper's walls are high, Natalie's guilt runs deep, and the entire town is watching to see if the golden couple of their high school days can find their way back to each other. But some loves are worth fighting for. Some mistakes deserve a second chance. And some hearts, no matter how broken, never stop hoping.

In a story of redemption, forgiveness, and the courage to choose love over fear, Natalie and Cooper must decide if the future they dreamed of at eighteen is still possible at forty-one-or if some tides only come in once.

A second-chance small-town romance that will make you believe in the power of coming home.
