Below Decks: A Small-Town Romance
Emily Lockwood grew up on her family’s prestigious island Ross Harbor, where the rich and powerful come to play. But she wants more than the life of a pampered princess. Emily’s job crewing her best friend’s charter sailboat has given her an escape from the pressures of high society. There’s just one problem… now she can’t escape her attraction to Storm Caines, her fellow crewman. Storm used to be just another crunchy year-rounder in the town of Griffin Bay. When did the hippie become a hottie? Emily can’t stop staring at his cut physique, and can’t help wondering whether the sailor’s thirst for adventure is stronger when he’s hauling sheets or between the sheets.
Storm’s desire for Emily is just as strong. But if their boss finds out they’ve been fooling around below decks, their jobs will be on the line. No the element of danger adds just the right amount of spice to please Storm’s palate. Secrecy is hot, and Storm plans to enjoy their clandestine fling for however long it lasts, then cut lines and sail away when his affair with Emily is over. …Or so he thinks.
But then Emily’s brother Bennett makes a bid to take control of Ross Harbor Resort… and Emily is exactly the bait Bennett needs to seal the deal. Torn between two worlds—and the two halves of her heart—Emily will have to decide whether freedom or family comes first. Faced with losing Emily forever, Storm must confront the love he’s been trying to deny. If they open the hatch on their secrets, will love win out? Or will Storm and Emily lose everything?
