The Inn at Seaglass Lane
A Stormproof Harbor Novel
When high-powered event planner Mara Kincaid inherits her grandmother's rambling seaside inn, she has a simple plan: clean it up, sell it fast, and disappear back to the city before anyone in Gull Haven remembers the girl who ran.
But the old house has other ideas.
A storm-battered roof, a preservation grant with ironclad strings, and a developer eager to declare the building unsafe turn a quick flip into a slow, tangled fight. To get out with her sanity-and a decent sale price-Mara has to keep the inn standing, satisfy a prickly town committee, and survive an inspection report that seems determined to sabotage her timeline.
Her best hope is Elias Rowe, a taciturn local contractor whose work is as precise as his patience is short. He knows every warped board and weathered piling in Gull Haven...and he has one rule: he doesn't invest in people who are already halfway gone.
From emergency tarps and midnight ladder work to preservation meetings and a town-wide fundraiser called Stormproof Harbor, Mara finds herself pulled into a community that remembers her grandmother, keeps showing up on her porch with casseroles, and refuses to let her treat the inn-or herself-as a temporary project.
As storms roll in off the Atlantic and pressure mounts from a high-profile job offer back in the city, Mara is caught between the life she built, the place she left, and the man who insists on doing things the right way, not the fast way. To save the inn and Gull Haven's working waterfront, she'll have to do the one thing she's spent years avoiding:
Stay. On purpose.
THE INN AT SEAGLASS LANE is a warm, slow-burn contemporary romance about second chances, found family, and the kind of coastal town that argues in public meetings and shows up in the middle of the night with sandbags. Perfect for readers who love:
- A gruff, quietly devoted carpenter and a tightly wound, hyper-competent heroine
- Small-town coastal settings with real stakes (historic covenants, nosy committees, threatening developers)
- Storms, leaks, and late-night almost-kisses on creaking porches
- Community-driven fundraisers, found family, and fighting for the places that feel like home
Fans of Abby Jimenez, Kate Clayborn, and Emily Henry's Happy Place will feel right at home on Seaglass Lane.
