The Inn at Grey Harbor

Celia Ward returns to Grey Harbor for one reason: to save The Mariner House before the struggling waterfront inn becomes impossible to keep. She has a plan, a deadline, and every intention of returning to the life she built in Boston. What she doesn't plan for is Jameson Reed — Grey Harbor's steady, infuriatingly practical Harbor Master, whose approval stands between the inn and its reopening. The more they work together, the harder it becomes to ignore an attraction neither of them has room for.

Then the weather turns. With a storm closing in and the town looking to The Mariner House for more than memories, Celia must decide how much of herself she's willing to invest in the place she once left behind. And Jameson must risk wanting something for himself instead of simply being the man everyone else can depend on.

Because saving an old inn may be the easy part. The harder question is whether two people who have built their lives around leaving and staying can find a reason to choose each other.
