HTML:<p>This audiobook is narrated by a digital voice.</p><br /> <p><strong>A heartwarming small town, second chance romance.</strong></p> <p>Every book in the Northlight Cove series can be read as a standalone.</p> <p>Four years ago, in New York, Sam Reeves did something Nora Hadley has spent every day since not thinking about. Now her magazine is sending her to profile him for eight weeks — and they have agreed, very sensibly and very professionally, not to bring it up.</p> <p>Nora Hadley writes profiles for a national magazine. Her job is to pull the thread in a person and see what comes loose.</p> <p>Sam Reeves dives Penobscot Bay for shipwrecks and builds ships in bottles. His job is to seal things inside glass and capture history.</p> <p>They have not been in the same room since New York.</p> <p>The assignment is straightforward. Eight weeks in Northlight Cove, Maine, writing about maritime archaeology, independent scholarship, and the ethics of underwater salvage. Nora has the recorder. Sam has the boat — and a golden retriever named Buoy, for whom every day is the best day, ever. They have a mutual, extremely professional agreement not to discuss the thing that happened in April, four years ago, in front of everyone.</p> <p>What Nora does not have a plan for is that while she might have forgotten her home town, and the bookshop she grew up in, it hasn't forgotten her.</p> <p>Or the ship in a bottle she has carried unopened through three apartments, which she has only just noticed has a hairline fracture in the seal. Sam Reeves spent three days on that seal. It is not a flaw.</p> <p>She is going to file the piece. She is going to leave.</p> <p>They are not going to talk about New York.</p> <p>Ever.</p>.
