After the death of her great-aunt, interior designer Ykima Baptiste inherits The Salt House, a storied seaside Victorian on St. Helen Island, where the tide keeps its own counsel and every room remembers the women who came before her. She arrives ready to measure damage, price repairs, and settle the obligations left in the wake of grief. The house has other plans.
Behind locked rooms, salt-worn walls, and blue glass catching the light like water, Ykima uncovers a legacy older than family rumor. The Salt House preserves what women survive. It draws truth from silence. It calls to the deep intuition in Ykima's blood, awakening a power she never knew how to name and a hunger for home she can no longer ignore.
Sevn St. Claire, the restoration contractor tasked with bringing the house back to life, becomes more than a man with skilled hands and a steady gaze. As the renovation turns intimate and the island gives up its secrets, Ykima finds herself caught between inheritance and desire, between the woman she has been and the woman the water keeps calling forward.
Atmospheric, sensual, and steeped in ancestral knowing, The Salt House is a romance about feminine power, sacred inheritance, and the ache of returning to the place that knew you before you knew yourself.
