He’s the last person she expected to show up. Falling in love again? Absolutely not. Viana Lawson has five days to pull off a secret celebrity wedding that could save her struggling business—and the house her parents built before they died. She’s planned for every possible disaster… except for Camden Mayfield. When the high-profile couple arrives with their own last-minute security hire, Cam is the last person Viana expected to see. The man who once walked away from her is now back in Summer Shore, standing between her and the success she desperately needs. Camden never planned to return—or to work alongside the woman he’s never been able to forget. But keeping the wedding safe means staying close to Viana. Too close. With fifteen VIP guests, a media leak, and mounting chaos, Viana and Cam must confront the past they never resolved. And maybe—just maybe—take a chance on a future they never saw coming. A clean, kissing-only contemporary romance filled with heart, humor, and a seaside town you’ll wish was real. Welcome to Summer Shore.

To revive his stalled career, jaded journalist Declan Collins is assigned to cover the Hamiltons’ extravagant Christmas party—the same Hamiltons who are demolishing the community centre where Declan spent some of the best moments of his childhood.

Addey Bennet, the event planner behind the party, needs everything to go perfectly. Her business is on the line, and so is her chance to mend a strained relationship with her powerful parents—the ones footing the bill.

Neither of them expects the spark between them.

Addey never planned to fall for the man who resents everything her family stands for. Declan never imagined he’d be drawn to the Hamiltons’ daughter. But as tensions rise and emotions deepen, their unexpected connection could cost them everything they’ve worked for—and maybe even a shot at love.
