In the depths of heartbreak, love runs deeper.
After losing her fiancé and getting laid off, marketing analyst Jess Pelletier needs a fresh start. The remote Maine fishing village of Applecross Cove seems like the perfect place to heal and launch her marketing business—free of romantic complications.

But when a runaway skateboarder sends Jess plunging into the harbor and Mark dives in to save her, the rescue awakens something in both of them. As Mark teaches her to swim and tends the cottage garden she’s sure she would kill, their friendship deepens into something more dangerous—the kind of love that could either heal their wounded hearts or shatter them completely.
In a town where everyone knows everyone, can two people afraid to trust again find the courage to take a chance on love?
