Claire Mitchell, a passionate marine biologist, has dedicated her life to protecting the ocean, leaving little room for personal relationships. When Ethan Cole, a former Navy officer and environmental activist, reenters her life to collaborate on a critical campaign, old wounds resurface. Years ago, they shared a connection that ended in heartbreak, and now, forced to work together, their chemistry is as undeniable as the tension between them. As they navigate their unresolved past and the challenges of the present, Claire and Ethan must decide if they can forgive each other—and themselves—to build a future together. Set against the breathtaking backdrop of the ocean, this is a story of resilience, forgiveness, and the power of love to heal even the deepest scars.
