Ocean's Embrace: Maritimo Island Series Book 1 - Paperback

by Lisa Stanbridge (Author)

TWO HEARTS. TWO SECRETS. ONE JOURNEY.

Adopted at birth and bullied through school, Tenika Ballentine doesn't open her heart to just anyone. Now she's on a journey of self-discovery to put her past to rest. A school reunion on the idyllic Maritimo Island might be exactly what she needs to find closure.

Light-hearted, fun loving Hamish McNeill's life has taken an unexpected turn. After the death of his beloved mother, she leaves a letter with one final wish: that he and his brothers travel to Maritimo Island to learn about their father. An identity she kept secret for 31 years.

Sparks fly when Tenika and Hamish meet in this tropical paradise. As their journeys overlap, they are soon sharing adventures, discoveries, and kisses behind waterfalls. Tenika is reluctant at first, but quickly realises Hamish is nothing like those who hurt her in the past.

As Tenika starts to open her heart to Hamish, they discover secrets, love and the courage to embrace their true selves. All too soon, their time together nears its end, and a letter from Hamish's mother might just undo everything. Can they keep their shared journey alive?
