Ripple Effect - Paperback

by Ki Stephens (Author)

DAISY Grey is chasing a fresh start-and the ocean. After a breakup that wrecked more than just her heart, she transfers to Coastal U with a surfboard under one arm and a plan to keep her head down. No distractions. No detours.

Then she finds a guy asleep on the beach.

ELIO Reynolds prefers solitude. With a secret side hustle, a dog who's seen too much, and a heart condition he's trying to ignore, connection isn't on his radar-until Daisy stumbles into his world like a sunrise he wasn't ready for.

What starts as a tentative friendship turns into something warmer, wilder, and far more complicated than either of them expected.

Two fractured hearts. One unlikely connection. When the waves of the past come crashing in, can they find a way to stay afloat?
