When Elena Carter trades a life of noise and heartbreak for the coastal stillness of a sleepy seaside town, the last thing she expects is Nathan Wolfe—an ambitious writer with a guarded heart and a past as complicated as her own. Their connection is instant, but the timing is anything but simple. Between the shelves of her little bookstore and the salty hush of the ocean, Elena and Nathan discover something rare—something worth risking everything for. But when opportunity calls Nathan away to New York, they’re faced with the hardest question of all: can love rooted in the quiet survive the pull of the world beyond? Told with lyrical warmth and emotional depth, Beneath the Blue is a slow-burn romance about letting go, holding on, and finding home in someone else's heart.
