Someone Else's Ocean

She has spent years hating him for all the right reasons—and one devastating wrong one.

When marine biologist Callie Monroe is forced to share a remote coastal research station with Roman Voss, the insufferably brilliant man who dismantled her career with a single damning report, she tells herself she only needs to survive six weeks. Six weeks of his sharp tongue, his sharper eyes, and the way he watches the ocean like it owes him something. Six weeks before she can escape him and forget he exists.

But Roman isn't the villain she constructed from memory. He's worse—he's complicated, and quiet in the dark, and he remembers things about her she doesn't remember saying.

*Someone Else's Ocean* is a slow-burn romance about two people who built walls out of misunderstanding and pride, only to find that proximity is a merciless architect. The more Callie pushes, the more Roman holds steady. The more he reveals, the more her perfectly organized anger begins to look like something she should have examined long ago.

There are things that belong to other people—other lives, other choices—and then there are things that were always yours, waiting out in the water where you couldn't quite reach them.

Some loves don't ask permission. They just pull like the tide until you stop fighting the current.

*This one will wreck you. Beautifully.*
