Returning home was never part of Greg Marsters’ plan.
Eighteen months after a devastating divorce and the scandal that drove him out of Wyndham Shores, Navy pilot Greg Marsters comes back to the picturesque coastal town determined to keep his head down. Restoring antique schooners for his longtime mentor is supposed to be nothing more than a temporary assignment—a chance to save enough money to buy the boat he’s always dreamed of before sailing away for good.
Then he runs into Melanie Grantham.
Beautiful, confident, and the one woman willing to look beyond the rumors that destroyed his reputation, Melanie awakens feelings Greg thought he’d buried forever. What begins as one irresistible night quickly turns into a passionate affair neither of them can resist. With every stolen kiss, every heated embrace, and every unforgettable evening together, the walls around Greg’s heart begin to crumble.
But small towns never forget, and neither does the guilt Greg still carries. As old secrets resurface and the time comes for him to leave once again, he’ll have to decide whether he’s willing to risk his heart for the only woman who’s ever truly seen the man beneath the uniform.
Filled with sizzling chemistry, heartfelt emotion, and the irresistible promise of second chances, The Navy Pilot’s Second Chance is a steamy contemporary romance about discovering that the greatest adventure isn’t found at sea—it’s finding your way home to the person you were always meant to love.
