Bestselling author Amy Clipston invites you on a beach vacation with a grumpy/sunshine couple forced together when they inherit co-ownership of a seaside bed-and-breakfast that's Netflix's Falling Inn Love meets Debbie Macomber.
Everleigh Hartnett, a traveling NICU nurse, is thrown into a world of cozy country charm when she inherits half of a quaint bed-and-breakfast from her beloved godmother, Alana. She's convinced Alana left her the inn so that she could finally start the nonprofit they'd planned to help parents of critically ill children. But her dream of selling the inn is thwarted by the other half-owner, the rugged and grouchy handyman who has forged a new start by maintaining the inn and its guests.
Cade Witherspoon, a man hardened by a past heartbreak, is not happy when his quiet life is disrupted by the arrival of the bubby Everleigh. His determination to keep the inn clashes with Everleigh's plans to sell it, sparking a fiery battle of wills. As Cade grapples with the unexpected revelation of a long-lost brother and a mother who wants nothing to do with his newfound sibling, he finds himself increasingly drawn to Everleigh's vivacious spirit and kindness.
In the heart of a small town, where everyone's business is known, Everleigh and Cade's contentious relationship evolves into a reluctant partnership. As they work out a compromise, setting a deadline for putting the inn on the market, they discover a connection they can't ignore. Amidst the turmoil of family secrets and the threat of losing the inn to a soulless corporation, they must confront their feelings for each other. Will they let past heartbreaks and fear of change keep them apart, or will they find love in the very place they were trying to sell?
