A bride forsaken at the altar. An off-course veteran avoiding his family. A ghost with an uncanny sense of predicting impending storms. Not to mention the hurricane. Isla Denton's fiancé grew increasingly distant. For one, he actively avoided her family. Second, maybe she should have taken into account the little things… she liked spending time at the beach and he liked… well… working. It should have come as no real surprise that he left her standing at the altar. And then there was the ghost… Christopher Worthington, a veteran honorably discharged from the Air Force, his career over far earlier than expected, his future uncertain and not a little weary, thought it prudent to spend a few days…months maybe… in Galveston to avoid going home to his perfect family. When he meets Isla, Christopher finds another reason to stay in Galveston. And it was not the ghost. Will a guy trying to avoid his perfect family and a girl whose fiancé left her alone, barefoot on the beach, find a connection as a massive hurricane bears down on them? An emotional and touching sweet rom com taking the reader on a roller coaster ride of feelings.
