Stranded with the Surf Instructor

A Sweet Friends to Lovers Small Town Romance

By: Jo Chandler

Narrated by: Virtual Voice

Some love stories begin with a kiss. Theirs began with a rescue—twice.

Thirty-year-old Kaylee Greggs has spent twelve years in Collins Ridge, Montana, waiting for a man who's never coming home.
Seth Jensen left at eighteen to join the military, promising to return. For three years, he wrote constantly. Then the letters stopped and her emails went unanswered. The twelve years of silence that followed hollowed out her heart.
Laid off and facing a future that feels increasingly small, Kaylee makes one impulsive decision: fly to Hawaii and visit the wild beach she and Seth once dreamed about. Take her closure selfie. Then move on with her life.
She doesn't expect a rogue wave to knock her off her feet during a hurricane evacuation.
And she definitely doesn't expect the surfer who drags her from the ocean to be Seth Jensen.

For three years, Seth has been hiding on an isolated lava field on Hawaii's Puna coast, surfing dangerous waves and running from the man he's become.
His PTSD, scars, and darkness, are proof he made the right choice leaving Kaylee behind. Until she shows up on his beach, forcing him to face everything he's been avoiding.
Trapped together when the storm washes out their escape route, twelve years of hurt explodes into the reason he stopped writing and the love that never died between them.
Now they have a choice. Stay stranded in the past, or brave the storm together and find their way home.

A forced proximity, grumpy/sunshine, second-chance romance about PTSD, healing, and the courage to go home.
