Summary
Jolene Johnson has built a life she can be proud of. A life running her late father’s autobody shop, taking her boat out at sunrise, and coming home to her loyal German Shepherd, Chewbacca. She’s strong, self-reliant, and perfectly content with the quiet rhythm of her days. Love, she’s decided, just isn’t something she needs. Then one winter night, after two weeks away, Jolene walks into the small-town bar owned by her godparents and catches the attention of a stranger laughing at one of her jokes.
Sam Walsh is a Navy SEAL, stationed in Little Creek for six months of training before heading back overseas in July. He’s steady, composed, and used to keeping his emotions in check. When he meets Jolene, the daughter of a man who once wore the same uniform, something in him stirs. She’s everything he never expected: grounded, wild-hearted, beautiful and impossible to forget. From the start, their connection burns fast and fierce. Too strong for hesitation, too real to ignore. But as their worlds begin to collide, distance, duty, and the ghosts of their pasts threaten to pull them apart.
Because sometimes love doesn’t wait for the perfect moment. It finds you in the most unexpected one, and dares you to simply hold on.
