The Salt Stained Sanctuary
She was sent to the edge of the world to find stillness. Instead, she found the one man her people had cast out.
Twenty-four-year-old Eliza Miller has always been too curious for her own good. Back home in Ohio, her community calls her restless heart a sickness—and her questions a sin. Desperate to cure her, the Bishop ships her to a wind-swept bluff on the Maine coast to winterize an elderly English widow’s sprawling beach house.
Eliza expects hard labor and silence. She doesn’t expect the roaring Atlantic—or the broad-shouldered carpenter who knows exactly what it feels like to be cast out.
Gideon Troyer was shunned five years ago for defying his Bishop to save a dying child. He’s built a solitary life of saltwater and sawdust, and he wants nothing to do with the world that threw him away. But a girl who carries the scent of home is already cracking the walls around his heart.
Then a ferocious nor’easter cuts the house off from the mainland—and traps them together.
With the clock ticking toward her return to Ohio, Eliza must choose between the safe life her family mapped out for her, and a forbidden second chance at love that could cost her everything she’s ever known.
