After a swimming injury that halts her career and a nasty breakup, Maya Cove decides it might be time to shy away from the spotlight and start all over again. She picks Diamond Sands, a small clearwater beach on the coast which she visited with her parents when she was seven. The townspeople are welcoming and live simple lives, and after three years, Maya is sure that she made the right decision. Living in Diamond Sands with Tabby, her cat, and running her coffee and pastry shop, Sandbar, is just what Maya needs to unwind. It has always drawn her to the water, and the breathtaking view of the beach from her window every morning never gets old. Her parents were also beach lovers, and they spent many family holidays on new beaches that her parents discovered. These beach-cations, as they called them, were the highlight of her childhood and held many beautiful memories about her family. Life is good in Diamond Sands and quiet, just the way Maya wants her life to be. She became a professional swimmer to honor her mother, who died when she was eight. Her life had become a constant turmoil of training and competitions ever since. Now, she had peace in Diamond Sands, a cat who adored her, and a father who called every other week to check in on how she was doing. She could ask for nothing more. However, when she saves a drowning dog at the behest of a stranger who can’t swim, Maya’s life might just take on a new twist. Roddy Sanders is in town. Maya falls quicker than she ever imagined. Roddy seems to feel the same way about her, but Maya knows they doomed a relationship to failure from the start. Maya’s world crumbles a few weeks later after she receives devastating news about her father. The situation is direr than she can handle, and Roddy offers to help.
