I Dare You: A Small Town Second Chance Romance

They never thought it would last. They just weren't ready for it to end. A week at the beach isn't the time to fall in love. Unfortunately for Cole and Maggie, a week on Ocracoke Island was all it took to skip right past the summer fling and fall head over heels into something neither of them was prepared for. But when the week ended, real life was waiting - and everyone knows that summer love doesn't survive in the real world. Maggie's life was in the city - fast-paced, demanding, and impossible to ignore. >Still, they tried. They chose each other. They even said I do. And somewhere between who they were, and who they thought they could become... they broke. Years later, Maggie returns to the small coastal town she once called home, searching for the safe harbor she once knew. But the island hasn't changed - and neither has the man she left behind. Now she's face to face with the past she couldn't outrun... and the undeniable pull of a love that never truly let go. Because some loves don't end - they wait.
