Summary

Standalone Sweet Romance:- Jerilyn “Jeri” Newport doesn’t do chaos. She does colour-coded plans, silent libraries, and novels where everything works out exactly as it should. Yet here she is—shipped across the world to a tiny coastal town she’s never heard of, and a beach house full of someone else’s memories, while her newly married mother enjoys her honeymoon. Marvin Bay was supposed to be a peaceful place to regroup and find her feet. It would be—if not for Tom Harding. He’s loud where she’s quiet. Chaotic where she’s careful. A surfer. A fisherman. A professional menace with a wicked grin, zero volume control, and a talent for getting under her skin. They share a house, a kitchen, and a stray cat… and that’s where the sharing will end. Or so Jeri keeps telling herself. Their cartoon-chase name dynamic isn’t lost on either of them, and just like her namesake, Jeri is determined to stay out of reach. Tom is more than happy to chase. The longer she stays, the harder it becomes to ignore the cracks in his carefree façade—or the way he keeps showing up when she needs him most. And somewhere between power failures, stormy nights, and far too many idiotic fights, Jeri finds herself slowing down… even wanting to stop and be caught. Marvin Bay starts to feel less like a detour—and more like the destination. Maybe even something worth staying for. Because sometimes the life you didn’t plan… is exactly the one you need.
