Where the Tide Returns

She left ten years ago and promised herself she would never come back.

Ten years ago, Dr. Reagan Cole left the Gulf Coast island of Tidewater Crossing in the middle of the night, no explanation, no goodbye, and no intention of ever returning. The town wrote the story without her. Her ex-fiancé held the pen. And Reagan let them, because the truth was something she wasn’t ready to speak out loud.

Now a respected marine biologist, Reagan is sent back to the very beach she fled to lead a critical sea turtle conservation project during nesting season. The assignment is career-defining. The location is soul-destroying. And the man the local church has assigned to partner with her on the project is the last person she expected, Colton Morrow. Her ex-fiancé’s older brother. The quiet one. The steady one. The one who has no idea what really happened the night she left.
