In the coastal town of Heartbeat Bay, where crashing waves echo the rhythm of broken hearts, EMT Brooke Ramirez has built a life defined by control, precision, and solitude. Haunted by a past relationship and the emotional wreckage it left behind, she throws herself into her work-saving others to forget she can't save herself.
Dr. Noah Kessler arrives in Heartbeat Bay hoping to outrun his own ghosts. A former pediatric trauma surgeon from Boston, Noah trades high-stakes surgeries for a quieter life, but soon finds the past doesn't let go so easily. When a storm and a medical emergency force Brooke and Noah to work side-by-side, sparks fly-both in tension and in chemistry.
As professional respect blossoms into something deeper, both must confront the wounds they've tried to ignore. Can two people who've spent their lives healing others learn how to heal themselves-and maybe each other?
Hearts on the Line is an emotionally rich romance about resilience, vulnerability, and the courage to love again-even when it hurts. Perfect for fans of beachside romances with medical drama, slow-burn chemistry, and characters who fight hard to find peace.
