But as the clock ticks down to your arranged marriage in the coastal town of Seabrook, the weight of expectation starts to crush you. Lucas Grey is handsome, wealthy, and the perfect match... for your family. Not necessarily for you. You barely know him. You barely know yourself outside of what others want from you.

What if it's about choice? Now you're standing at a crossroads. The entire town is watching. Your family's legacy is on the line. And the vows you're expected to say out loud don't match the ones your heart is writing in secret.

Emotional, coming-of-age romance with high stakes ? Slow-burn love stories where the tension is as thick as coastal fog ?
