Shoreline Surrender Team Cali Book

I never planned to stay here.Not in the house where my mother died.Not in the shadow of a marriage that turned toxic.And definitely not with the man I hired to fix a few broken walls—Only to find out he could see right through mine.Heath Carrington is six foot four of hard-edged, sharp-eyed Navy SEAL.Combat medic. Quiet. Steady. Infuriating.The kind of man who gets under your skin fast—The kind who doesn’t walk away when things get messy.But I didn’t come here to be rescued.I came to disappear.To get the hell out of my ex-husband’s grip.To claw back my independence and stand on my own two feet again.Even if I’m still looking over my shoulder.Even if the nightmares haven’t stopped.Even if every day I tell myself I don’t need help.Especially not from a man like Heath.Especially not the one I can’t stop fantasizing about.But when the past catches up to me in the most brutal way,He’s the one who shows up.Not just to fight for me—But to stay.Now I have a choice:Keep pretending I don’t need anyone.Or finally let someone in.Even if the scariest thing I’ll ever doIs stop running—and let myself be loved.
