What We Could Be (Coral Bay Book 1)

The rules are no feelings, no strings. But rules were made to be broken. And broken things hurt.

As the owner of the Coral Bay Inn, I’ve built myself an uncomplicated small-beach-town life. Men? friends with benefits, no strings—the safest way to guard my heart.

But Sebastian Sawyer isn’t just any guy. He’s been there from the start—before I had cheekbones, before my skin cleared. Before I turned heads. We were each other’s first everything. Now that long-ago geeky boy has muscles that belong on an action figure and a calm that’s hard to shake.

Our long-tenured no-strings arrangement is perfect. But perfect things don’t last.

When the inn needs repairs, Sebastian moves in to help. Spending our days and nights together shatters the balance and complicates everything. Sebastian wants forever—an F-word that scares me as much as feelings—so I safeguard my heart before his rewrites everything I swore against.

Yet my foolish heart insists on following my body’s lead. Because forever with Sebastian could be perfect … but if forever breaks, so will I.

What We Could Be is a dual pov, small-town romance, with the perfect mix of angst, banter, and heat.
