Hearts Adrift - James, Pebble

Résumé :

How did I end up falling for the one man I swore to resist?

Jorge is the last person I expected to get under my skin. Older, infuriatingly meticulous, and entirely off-limits, he embodies everything I didn't know I needed. From the moment we met, the tension was palpable, like a storm waiting to break. I came to the Bahamas for a change of pace, not to lose myself in a man who turns my world upside down.

Working together on daily dives, we're always in each other's orbit-totally forced to be near one another. With every shared glance and unspoken moment beneath the waves, I see his guarded exterior crack, revealing glimpses of a heart that beats in time with the ocean.

A shared laugh over a stubborn piece of gear, a sunset that feels like a secret, and the way he looks at me when he thinks I'm not watching-these moments shift everything. What seemed impossible becomes undeniable.

But as I fall deeper, the reality of my return ticket looms. Our lives are worlds apart, and the distance feels insurmountable.

What happens when the person you vowed to resist becomes the one you can't imagine leaving behind?

Would you risk it all for love?
