Tattered Tides

Celestia Cove, Book 1

By: Sarah A. Bailey

Narrated by: Rachel Leblang, Connor Brown

Weston Ashford was determined to have it all. After a tumultuous upbringing, he'd found a family of his own and his calling: surfing. As a World Junior Champion, his future was finally bright, until his past came for him, and one mistake had him sinking straight toward rock bottom.

Years later, he's fresh-out-the-slammer and stripped of his medal. When one last chance to follow his dream of becoming a professional surfer presents itself, he takes it with both hands—no distractions, no weakness. That is, until he crosses paths with his coach's daughter.

Willow Graham isn't supposed to be here. She had plans, and they didn't include an abrupt move back to her hometown. Her entire life unraveled after a traumatic experience she's still struggling to come to terms with.

Both hellbent on rebuilding their futures and rediscovering who they are, Willow and Weston initially find themselves at odds when their shared spaces cause tension, but as their forced proximity gives way to mutual understanding, they discover a connection deeper than they ever thought possible.

Will their unexpected bond prove strong enough to overcome the tides between them, or will they end in tatters?
