Amelia Lang's life has officially hit rock bottom. Fired from her job, estranged from her best friend, and stuck living with her overbearing mother, she books a one-way ticket to a remote Greek island—hoping to heal, hide, and figure out what's next.
But when a wild night ends with a surprise wedding to James, a fellow hotel guest she barely knows, Amelia wakes up to the kind of trouble you can't just run away from. Their reward? A run-down seaside hotel neither of them wants and a summer-long pact to keep the doors open for the beloved locals who depend on it.
As Amelia and James navigate impossible guests, crumbling walls, and their own tangled hearts, the boundaries between "accidental partners" and something more begin to blur. But Amelia is certain her real life is waiting back in San Francisco. Is it time for her to return home or could this be the second chance at a new life she didn't know she wanted?
