About the Book
His strategy was perfect. Then the one thing he couldn’t outrun showed up.
Miles Larson built his life on distance — from people, from need, from anything that could hurt. Feelings cost too much, and caring always comes with strings.
Three months into his year-long obligation at the Stillwater Inn and he’s counting the days until he can cash out and leave the crumbling legacy, and the people in it, behind.
But spring brings complications he can’t spreadsheet away.
A stranger arrives looking for answers Miles has buried.
His daughter shows up desperate and afraid.
Secret phone calls promising a fortune start sounding more like leverage than luck.
As past and present tangle, Miles is pulled toward the very things he’s avoided most—connection, loyalty, and the terrifying risk of being needed. When he uncovers what the developers truly want with the inn and why, he faces the choice he’s dodged his entire life—take the payout and stay detached, or stay and fight for the place and the people he never meant to love
Return to the world of Hometown Harbor with Harbor Winds, the third book in the Stillwater Inn series—a poignant story of forgiveness, found family, and one man discovering that sometimes love doesn’t arrive gently — it breaks in and rearranges everything.
