Welcome to Willow Bay, a small seaside town where the sea meets the soul — and where love, no matter how long forgotten, always finds its way home.

In this heartfelt collection, two tender stories intertwine under the same coastal sky:

Love Beneath the Lighthouse

When marine biologist Ellie Ward returns to Willow Bay to study the reefs, she never expects to come face to face with Dean Mercer — the reclusive lighthouse keeper who was once her first love.

As they work side by side to restore both the lighthouse and their past, old wounds resurface, secrets are revealed, and one final storm will test the light they’ve rekindled between them.

The Bakery of Lost Letters

After inheriting her grandmother’s bakery, Rosa Alvarez discovers a box of hidden love letters dating back to World War II — a story of passion and loss that changes everything she thought she knew about her family.

With the help of Liam Brooks, the history teacher renting the flat upstairs, Rosa begins to uncover a mystery written in flour and ink.

But when Liam’s own future pulls him away, Rosa must decide whether love, like bread, can rise again after being left to rest.

The Hearts of Willow Bay – Volume 1 is a celebration of second chances, found family, and the quiet beauty of lives rebuilt by love. Perfect for readers of Nicholas Sparks, Jenny Colgan, and Jojo Moyes, this warm, emotional duet will leave you believing that sometimes, the heart just needs to find its way home.
