Two childhood soulmates, two opposite sides of the tracks, one beach house.

Oliver Madden doesn't do relationships. Which I'd do well to remember because, at 38, he's the same maddening heartthrob he was in high school.

I've known him since we were six. My mother cleaned the house Oliver grew up in. A lonely kid in a big villa with no love. From the moment we met, we became each other's shore to crash upon, until time and life came between us.

When the broken boy I once loved learns I'm drowning in debt and offers I move into his beach house, I can't afford to say no. I just need to ensure I don't fall for the man he is now. A green-eyed man with barbed wire around his heart.

Oliver claims he offered his house because he owes me. But every kind act, every lingering look, every burning touch, tells me that this rugged man is a gun loaded with pain, rage, and love.

And he doesn't want to risk my finger on the trigger.

Shores of Your Heart is a dual pov, forced proximity, slow burn, second chance, former childhood friends to lovers romance with an achingly heartfelt road to a HEA.
