Grace hasn't been home to Tranquil Bay in thirty years—not since her mother died. Now she's back to fix up the family cottage and sell it. Six weeks, in and out. Simple.



Except nothing about coming home is simple. Her estranged father wants to reconcile. Her childhood best friend Lila is back in her life after thirty years of silence. And her contractor? Cameron—her first love. Between renovating her cottage, navigating revelations about her father, and trying to keep things 'just friends' with a man who still makes her heart race, Grace is discovering that six weeks might not be nearly enough time.



Mallory has spent eight years hiding behind the counter of her inn, pretending she's fine. When Grace and Lila start hosting Tequila Tuesdays in her living room, Mallory realizes that 'fine' isn't cutting it. And when Grace points out that Conor O'Dell—the celebrity baker who delivers pastries to her door every morning—has been flirting with her for months, Mallory has to decide if she's brave enough to notice. Because noticing means feeling.



Lila Greer has lived in Tranquil Bay forever, long enough to know that secrets never stay buried. She's kept one from Grace since they were seventeen—a truth so explosive it cost them their friendship. Now that Grace is back, that secret is getting harder to keep. And with her own life unraveling in ways she can't control, Lila knows she'll have to make a choice soon.



Thanks to Tequila-fueled confessions and the kind of friendships that feel like coming home, Grace is learning that some things are worth the risk.
