He’s my billionaire ex. A reformed bad boy. A famous New York chef—and the one who broke my heart. Now he’s back in Seaview Harbor. Living next door. Helping in my restaurant. And making it impossible to ignore everything we used to be. My protective brother warned me to keep my distance. Keep the past buried. And keep Chase’s return a secret. But nothing about Chase is easy to ignore. He’s calmer now. Steadier. Still maddening—and still the only man who ever made me feel seen. And somehow, despite everything, I start to believe in us again. But I have a secret. One I’ve kept for years. My daughter is his. I want to believe in second chances. But if the truth comes out too late? It won’t just cost me the only man I’ve ever loved. It’ll cost my daughter the only dad she’s ever needed. If you love second chances, hidden truths, and small-town romance with a clean, emotional punch—this book is for you.
