Quiet on the Ferry
Predawn fog. One whistle. Trust-or drift alone.
After an injury and a PR tailspin, action star Dax Rivera escapes Hollywood to shadow a state ferry maintenance yard, hoping real safety will make him a better stuntman-and a better man. Lara Quinton, the yard's no-nonsense safety officer, has zero patience for men who treat danger like content. Her rules are simple: cones before cameras, one voice on deck, and stop first.
Assigned to Lara, Dax expects mechanics; he gets a culture-checklists, debriefs, and a crew who measure love by who carries what. When a man-overboard drill turns real, Lara's calm command and Dax's unexpected competence pull a stranger-and their fragile trust-back to the surface. But rumor, studio pressure, and a community day under bright lights test every boundary they've built. To earn a future, he must prove he's more than his image, and she must risk believing in someone in a job where drift kills.
A slow-burn, blue-collar romance about choosing boring on purpose-and finding something incandescent inside it.
Perfect for fans of: Katherine Center, Emily Henry's workplace tenderness, maritime vibes, found-family competence.
