Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - Audrey Bennett believes history should be preserved, cataloged, and understood-preferably in a climate-controlled room where nothing unexpected can happen. Lena Hart knows better. Out on the shoreline, history doesn't sit quietly behind glass. It resurfaces in fragments, shifts with the tide, and refuses to stay where anyone left it. As a seaglass artist who maps what the ocean returns, Lena has built her life around the stories people overlook-and the patterns they never think to question. When the Delaney Maritime Museum pushes Audrey to make her meticulously curated exhibit 'more accessible,' the last thing she wants is a collaboration with someone who treats broken fragments like meaningful history. Lena, however, isn't interested in playing by museum rules. What starts as a reluctant partnership quickly turns into a clash of perspective, control, and what counts as truth. But the more time Audrey spends outside the rigid lines she's drawn, the harder it becomes to ignore what Lena sees-and the way Lena sees her. Because some stories aren't meant to be contained. And some connections refuse to stay buried. Seaglass, Setbacks & Starting Over is a layered, emotionally charged romance about control, vulnerability, and what happens when you let the past shift under your feet.…
