The story
Your grandmother's will gives you one summer to reopen the Lantern House before the town festival. Five men remember you from childhood, and each family holds part of the truth behind the inn's thirty-year silence.
The setting
Graywater Cove, a fading seaside town of lanterns, salt air, old family histories, and one shuttered inn.
The tone
Warm, melancholy, romantic, and mysterious, with slow-burn routes and a truth meant to heal rather than shock.
Meet the love interests
The easiest smile in town. Nobody has ever asked if it is real.
Nobody has his good ending yet.
He heals everyone. Someone should tend to him.
He is not mad you do not remember him. Probably.
