Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - A 90-day inheritance clause, a crumbling Victorian manor, and a grumpy fisherman who might just be the biggest storm of them all. Corporate lawyer Theo Langford fled the small coastal town of Saltwood Bay fifteen years ago, trading ocean spray for a successful life in Seattle. But when his grandmother Maeve passes away, leaving him the historic, weather-beaten Cliffside Manor, her will comes with a strict catch: a ninety-day continuous residency requirement before he can inherit the estate. Trapped in a house that is slowly surrendering to the relentless Pacific weather, Theo just wants to serve his time and get back to his corporate mergers. Enter Eli Harlan, the fiercely protective, stubborn captain of the Siren's Call. To Eli, Theo is just a 'city boy' who abandoned his roots and represents the kind of outside interference threatening their generations-old fishing fleet. But when a catastrophic coastal storm forces the two adversaries to work together to keep the manor's roof from collapsing, the forced proximity sparks a dangerous, electric attraction they can't ignore. Their newfound connection is put to the ultimate test when a predatory luxury resort developer targets the harbour, threatening to buy out vulnerable fishermen and destroy the town's way of life. Thrust together as co-chairs of a resistance task force, Theo and Eli must combine legal strategy with community organizing to fight back against the corporation. However, the stakes turn deeply personal when Theo discovers the ruthless developer has a shocking, devastating tie to his own past. Caught between the safe, predictable life he built and the town he is beginning to call home, Theo must decide where he truly belongs. Can a rootless lawyer and a deeply anchored fisherman weather the storm to save Saltwood Bay, or will the colliding tides tear them apart.…
