The Tide After Goodbye

By Mia Kingsley

After twenty-two years of being overlooked, Claire Morrison is finally free.
Newly divorced and emotionally worn out, she uses her settlement to do the first reckless, beautiful thing she has done in years: book a solo trip to Hawaii.

She expects sun, silence, and enough distance to catch her breath. What she does not expect is Noah Reyes-a younger surf instructor with a sharp tongue, a steady heart, and an unsettling talent for seeing through her defenses. Their first meeting sparks irritation, not romance. But as Claire learns to stand on a surfboard, she also begins to reclaim the woman she was before marriage taught her to become small.

Against the backdrop of warm waves, trade winds, and breathtaking sunsets, what starts as a temporary escape turns into something far more dangerous: hope. Yet real life is waiting beyond the island, and both Claire and Noah are carrying fears neither can outrun forever.

The Tide After Goodbye is an emotional, slow-burn contemporary romance about second chances, healing after heartbreak, and discovering that love can find you at the exact moment you decide to choose yourself.

Perfect for readers who love mature heroines, tropical settings, heartfelt emotion, and a deeply satisfying happily-ever-after.
