Sindi Cormack walked away from her draining nursing career to find a reset, seeking joy and purpose back in her hometown of Port Grace. Running a small ice cream cart on the pier, she is fiercely determined to build an independent life and stop twisting herself into shapes that please other people.
Jared Faelan is a quiet fisherman built of careful routines and deep, ancient secrets. As a selkie who recently recovered his stolen pelt, he is terrified by the sea's relentless call. Convinced that human connection will only lead to inevitable tragedy, he keeps his pelt locked in a footlocker and aggressively pushes everyone away to protect his fragile human life.
But when Sindi's vibrant presence and refusal to be intimidated pierce his guarded exterior, Jared’s walls begin to fracture. As Sindi unearths forgotten town histories, she refuses to let Jared's fears drive her away.
To build a future together, Jared must stop running from his true nature, and Sindi must prove that a love anchored in truth is stronger than the pull of the tide.
