Rescued to Be Messy

I save lives for a living. But no one warned me about drowning in old feelings.

I wouldn't call myself a homebody, exactly. It's just that I've never seen much of a reason to travel all over the world, when there's more than enough to keep me busy here in my small, Florida beach town.

For the past ten years, I've been developing our lifeguard program into something special. Now, I've got the opportunity to implement a new, nationally recognized course. There's just one giant problem . . .

The woman who designed it is The One Who Got Away. And the mayor insists I work with her.

A decade ago, I believed our dreams were aligned. Instead, she ran off to California to pursue her own thing. And I . . . well, let's just say there hasn't been a day I haven't thought about her. She swears she's not here to stir up any trouble, and my head knows not to let her back in. But my heart isn't that bright.

Being around Callie again makes it seem like old times. And it certainly feels like the same-old betrayal when her Hollywood boyfriend shows up looking for some personal instruction.

Am I about to drown in misery, or can we chart a course for happily ever after?
