Lighthouse Cove

When a traumatized former police officer escapes to a small coastal town, she discovers that some lighthouses guide more than just ships to safety.

Emma Mackenzie came to Seagrove Island to disappear. Running the newly restored lighthouse seems perfect for someone desperate to escape her past—especially the night she was forced to take a life in the line of duty.

All she wants is anonymity and peace. What she finds instead is a tight-knit community determined to welcome her, whether she's ready or not.

Between Julie, the bookstore owner with her own fresh start story, and Janine, a yoga instructor who recognizes the shadows of trauma Emma tries to hide, Seagrove's residents refuse to let their newest neighbor remain isolated. As Emma reluctantly opens up, she discovers that healing might be possible—if she can finally forgive herself.

But when her past catches up with her, Emma must decide: will she run again, or has she finally found the place where broken hearts come to mend?

A heartfelt, emotional story about community, healing, and finding your place in the world when you least expect it. Perfect for readers who love small-town settings where friendship feels like coming home.
