He inherited 3,000 acres of coastal legacy. She needs it to prove she belongs.

Wildlife biologist Daisy Grove came to Lovett Cove with one thing on her mind: her first approved grant and a bald eagle nesting season she can’t afford to waste. Daisy may be sunshine in hiking boots—free-spirited, warm, relentlessly optimistic—but she’s determined to be taken seriously as a scientist. And the perfect raptor habitat sits behind one locked gate: the Carter estate.

Reclusive artist Ian Carter didn’t come home to play hero. He came to claim his inheritance, sell it fast, and finally earn the approval his family only gives when he “produces” something worth bragging about. Letting an outspoken researcher—and her team—onto his land is the last complication he needs…until Daisy’s passion cracks through his defenses and sparks the kind of creative fire he’s been missing for years.

Forced into uneasy collaboration—early morning fieldwork, tense negotiations, and one too-close boathouse moment that changes everything—animosity turns to attraction, and attraction turns to something terrifyingly real.

But Ian is keeping a secret.

When Daisy discovers his plan to sell, it doesn’t just threaten her project—it threatens the fragile trust between them.

And if Ian wants to be safe in Daisy’s arms, he’ll have to choose: the life he was told to want…or the woman who makes him believe he’s already enough.
