Where everyone knows your name... and your business.

She came back for the story of a lifetime. She found the love of a lifetime.

When investigative journalist Olivia Morrison returns to her picturesque Cornish hometown after ten years, she's armed with one goal: expose the environmental scandal poisoning her childhood paradise and get out fast. What she doesn't expect is coming face-to-face with Athan Pemberton, the devastatingly handsome Chief of Police who also happens to be the one man she's spent a decade trying to forget.

Athan never got over Olivia's sudden disappearance without explanation. Now she's back, treating him like a stranger while threatening to destroy everything his family has built. But when children start showing up with mysterious health problems, professional duty collides with personal history in ways neither saw coming.

Between heated arguments in cozy pubs and stolen kisses on moonlit clifftops, old sparks reignite into an inferno neither can resist.

But their investigation uncovers family secrets that run deeper than either imagined. With corporate lawyers circling, village loyalties dividing, and their own families caught in the crossfire, Olivia and Ethan must choose between the safety of silence and the dangerous power of truth.

Can a small-town police chief and a big-city journalist build a future together? Or will the explosive secrets that drove them apart destroy their second chance forever?
