Tattered Tides (Celestia Cove)

Set in California's surf culture, Tattered Tides follows two people navigating second chances and healing through an emotional, slow-burn romance. Weston Ashford once had everything: a found family, a home, and a career as a World Junior Champion surfer. A mistake derailed his future, landing him in prison and stripping him of his medal. Years later, freshly released, he pursues one final opportunity to become a professional surfer—until he meets his coach's daughter and finds his focus shaken in unexpected ways. Willow Graham never planned to return to her hometown of Pacific Shores or leave the university she worked hard to attend. A traumatic experience upended her life, and she's focused solely on rebuilding. When forced proximity with Weston creates tension neither anticipated, their shared struggle to rediscover themselves gradually reveals a deeper connection. Both determined to move forward, Weston and Willow must decide whether their bond can withstand the obstacles between them.
