Seaside Sisters

A clean and wholesome small-town beach romance about widower and single mom healing, friends-to-more at the Carolina Cove Inn, and slow-burn, closed-door (only-kisses) chemistry. Expect themes of grief to hope, found family, and second chances during sunny days and breezy coastal nights—all leading to a guaranteed HEA. Perfect for readers who love vacation rules vs. real feelings, tourist-local tension, and heartfelt, feel-good summer romance.

Widower Dominic Dunn isn’t sure what to think of his wife’s pre-planned trip for him a year after her death. It’s her effort to force him from his work desk to the coast and the peacefulness she’d found at the Carolina Cove Inn.

Innkeeper Ireland Cohen is a single mom with an impressionable son, and after the kid gets himself into trouble, Dominic offers to lend a hand. It’s the least he can do when Ireland was such a good friend to his wife after her diagnosis. 

As the hot summer days at the beach turn into breezy evenings, Ireland and Dominic find their shared memories and friendship turning into more. They’re drawn to each other, fighting an attraction neither of them want because of their pasts.

He’s only visiting, and Ireland has a strict rule about dating tourists. But as his trip draws to a close, they both wonder—is this their last goodbye?
