Some houses remember everything. Especially what happened behind closed doors.
Ten years ago, Evie Mercer fled Bar Harbor with Cal Bennett's touch still burning on her skin-and his heart shattered in her wake. Boston gave her distance, control, and the successful life she thought she wanted.
Then her grandmother dies, leaving Evie Cliff House, a town full of memories, and eight impossible weeks with the only man she has never managed to forget.
Cal isn't the boy she left behind. He's broader now. Rougher. Infuriatingly calm. He rebuilds abandoned houses with his bare hands and looks at Evie as though ten years haven't cooled a damn thing between them.
Selling Cliff House should take a signature and a flight back to Boston. Instead, the will makes Cal responsible for the repairs-and gives Evie approval over every decision. Day after day, they are forced into rooms that suddenly feel too small, arguments that burn too hot, and silences thick with everything they once did to each other.
Then Cal starts watching her mouth.
Cliff House slowly surrenders its secrets. Evie and Cal surrender theirs far less willingly. But anger has always been dangerously close to desire-and when ten years of restraint finally snap, what remains between them is anything but gentle.
Evie came home to sell a house.
Falling back into Cal's bed was never part of the plan.
Letting him beneath her skin again could destroy everything she built to survive leaving him the first time.
Where the Salt Air Stays is a deeply emotional, open-door second-chance romance filled with slow-burning tension, raw desire, old wounds, and the terrifying possibility that some loves refuse to stay buried.
Perfect for readers who crave small-town romance, forced proximity, first loves that still ache, old houses with secrets, found family, dual POV, hard-won forgiveness, and a deeply satisfying happily ever after.
