It feels really good to be saying this… my new romance novel, The Girl Who Lives By The Sea, is coming in June 2026.

It’s been a little while since I last wrote a love story, and returning to the genre felt a overwhelming at first, but this book has been such a great project start to finish, and I can’t wait for you to meet Mia and Luke.

Set in a quiet Cornish cove, The Girl Who Lives By The Sea is the story of Mia Marsh, who’s spent her whole life tucked away in a sea-facing house filled with memories and salt air. With her mum away on a writing retreat and her university dreams hanging in the balance, Mia’s summer takes an unexpected turn when an email changes everything, and a stranger on the beach changes even more.

Luke Watson didn’t come to Cornwall looking for love. He came searching for answers about a mother he’s never met but can’t forget. But from the moment he meets Mia, something begins to shift. What starts as curiosity turns into connection, and as the summer unfolds, both are forced to face the secrets they’ve been keeping, and the truth that could change everything.

It’s a love story, yes, but it’s also about the truth, family, and finding one’s place in the world. It’s about how the past seems always to find its way, washing back up on shore, and how sometimes the people we least expect may end up saving us.

Thank you, as always, for reading, supporting, and sharing my stories. I couldn’t do any of this without you.

The Girl Who Lives By The Sea will be available June 2026, and I can’t wait for you to dive in.
