She came to paradise to forget him-he came with the dog she could never forget.

Elise's plan was simple: a quick escape to the Bahamas, some sunshine, and a fresh start. But the moment she steps out of the cab, her past comes charging back-on four paws.

Mango, the golden retriever she lost in the divorce, is waiting for her... and so is Juan.

Her ex-husband. The one who broke her heart. The one who still knows how to smile at her in that maddening way. The one who just "happened" to show up with a business lead and a dog-sized olive branch.

With tension simmering under every island sunset and secrets tucked beneath every polite smile, Elise must navigate old wounds, new truths, and the possibility that some things-like love and loyalty-are worth a second look.

A swoony, sun-soaked tale of second chances, salty breezes, and the dog who just might save them both.
