He left to protect her. Five years later, the Coast Guard puts her life in his hands.
Cameron Hollis has built a fearless career inside a U.S. Coast Guard rescue helicopter. She trusts her crew, the ocean, and the instincts that bring stranded people home.
She does not trust Nixon Andrews.
Nixon was her childhood best friend, first love, and the man who promised her a future before secretly enlisting in the Navy with her brother. He ended their relationship, insisting that abandoning her was for her own good. Cameron never forgiven him.
Now, Nixon is back in Florida after losing his place in the Navy. The former SEAL is reckless, drinking too much, and desperate for purpose. His second chance? A spot on Cameron's elite rescue crew.
Working side by side forces them to confront every promise, betrayal, and buried desire. While Cameron tries to move forward with a loyal crewmate, Nixon hides his guilt behind a shield of indifference. Yet neither can deny the fierce connection that still feels like home.
When a sudden military notification reports Cameron's brother missing, shared grief pulls them closer-until a brutal tropical storm traps Cameron beside an overturned boat in churning seas. Faced with strict orders to pull back, Nixon refuses to leave her behind a second time.
He jumps.
Swept far from safety into the unforgiving ocean, Cameron and Nixon must fight exhaustion, the storm, and their past to survive the waves-and finally admit what their anger could never erase.
The Rescue Swimmer Who Came Back for Her is an explicit, emotional, and action-filled Coast Guard second-chance romance featuring an ex-NAVY Seal, workplace proximity, high-seas survival, grief, and a guaranteed happily-ever-after.
