Love Like the Trade Winds
London made Zara Hamilton cold. St. Isla is about to set her on fire.
For high-powered divorce lawyer Zara Hamilton, life is a series of billable hours and calculated risks. But when her ex-husband freezes her assets and leaves her on the brink of financial ruin, Zara's only lifeline is a crumbling inheritance she left behind years ago: her grandmother's estate on the remote island of St. Isla.
Her plan is simple. Liquidate the asset. Sell the land to the ruthless developer circling like a shark. Return to London before the humidity ruins her manicure.
But the island has other plans.
Enter Kai. A rugged local fisherman with a grudge against developers and a past he's trying to forget. He looks at Zara's designer suits and sees a predator; he looks at the land she's trying to sell and sees a heartbeat. He challenges her to see the reef beneath the waves, the community in the chaos, and the dangerous beauty of a life she can't control.
Trapped on a sandbar by the turning tide, and forced together by a hurricane that threatens to tear the roof off the estate, Zara's walls begin to crack. In the eye of the storm, she discovers that Kai isn't just protecting an island-he's protecting a part of her she thought was dead.
As the trade winds shift and Sterling threatens to bulldoze everything she's starting to love, Zara faces an impossible choice. She can sell the ground beneath her feet to buy back her old life, or she can stay and build a new one on the ruins of the past.
Some women run from the storm. Some women learn to dance in the rain.
A sweeping, emotional romance about finding your soul when you thought you'd sold it.
