Her father left behind a debt, a key, and one impossible warning: Don't trust the Whitmores. Except Noah.
The day Lena Morgan buries her father, a photograph of her standing at his grave appears beneath the door of his workshop. On the back is a message meant for her.
Her father owed something.
And now someone expects Lena to pay.
The only clue Gabriel left behind is an old key-and the name of the one man Lena has every reason to avoid.
Noah Whitmore is the heir to a powerful family her father spent years blaming for everything wrong with their small coastal town. Controlled, infuriating, and far too accustomed to keeping secrets, Noah claims Gabriel contacted him before his death. He also seems to know exactly why someone is willing to hurt Lena for what her father hid.
Trusting him is out of the question.
Staying away from him quickly becomes impossible.
Forced together as they unravel a decade-old web of lies, buried loyalties, and family secrets, Lena begins to discover that Noah may not be the enemy she believed him to be. But every truth brings another reason to doubt him-and every moment between them makes it harder to remember why she should.
Because some secrets can destroy a family.
And some feelings become dangerous long before either person is ready to name them.
An emotional slow-burn contemporary romance set on the coast of Maine, featuring enemies to lovers, forced proximity, family secrets, sharp banter, and a romance built on trust that has to be earned.
Book One in The Unspoken Coast series.
