About the Book

17-year-old Layla Cannes had it made. She was a senior, the Valedictorian, and had the most amazing bestie. The only thing that could make her life better was earning a scholarship to the best culinary school in the state by taking home first place at a local baking competition. And once Layla set her mind to something, she made it happen. Nothing could get in her way. Except for Matt McGinnis.


He. Ruined. Everything.


Matt McGinnis was Layla’s neighbor and nemesis. He sabotaged her at every turn and was right on her academic heels as Salutatorian. Then, Matt had the nerve to sign up for the same contest that could give Layla a free ride to her dream school, waging a war. A war that Layla was determined to win, no matter what.
Even if it meant beating Matt at his own game of sabotage.

LOVE ISN’T THE ONLY THING RISING.

For the past 25 years, Beth Collins has been stuck in a loop of safe choices and silent regrets. Now, recently divorced, battling a health scare, and turning 50, she has been given an unexpected gift—a 10-day luxury cruise intended to help her breathe again. But instead of cocktails and calm seas, Beth comes face-to-face with the past she thought she'd left behind: buried feelings, unfinished business, and a heartbreak she never quite moved on from.

Joining Beth is her uptight, workaholic daughter, Meghan, who treats emotions like the plague and vacations like a personal attack. Meghan’s plan is simple: keep her mother alive, avoid eye contact, and answer emails at sea. But when she meets her own ex, the one she never completely shut out of her heart, Meghan's iron grip on her well-organized life begins to fade.

Between umbrella drinks and family drama, Beth and Meghan will have to navigate old wounds, unexpected sparks and the terrifying possibility of happiness. It isn’t just a vacation—it’s a second chance at love.
