Back to Oyster Point - On Sale NOW
Just as Summer begins to imagine a future shaped by faith and honesty, Brad Hope, a love from her past returns. Confronted with who she once was and who she has become, Summer must choose between Brad and Caleb, a choice between becoming the woman she is now or returning to the woman she once was.




A Partnership with Promise
Shattered by a broken engagement, wrongly accused of embezzlement, and spiritually adrift, Summer Raines retreats to the Sea Islands of her youth. In the quiet rhythms of Oyster Point, she begins to rebuild her faith and rediscover who she is apart from achievement and appearance. A new role fundraising for a free medical clinic—and a thoughtful colleague she insists on seeing only as a professional—hint at possibilities she isn’t ready to name. Healing comes first. Love can wait.

Engaged and united by faith, Summer and her fiance' believe the hardest seasons are behind them. When life tests their commitment in unforeseen ways, they must learn whether love rooted in faith can endure uncertainty, sacrifice, and truth.
Return to Oyster Point in A Partnership with Promise, the second installment of the Tidal Creek Hearts series. A story of second chances.
Summer Raines teams up with Dr. Caleb Gervais to launch a capital campaign that will give the Oyster Point Free Medical Clinic a brand‑new home. To pull it off, she must lean on two unlikely allies: her estranged mother, Maggie—someone she’d rather avoid—and her former fiancé, Brad Hope, whose help may prove essential.
As the campaign swells, Summer’s renewed faith steadies her, and a deepening bond with Caleb blossoms amid the challenges.
Join Summer and Caleb where stately white egrets glide through spartina grass, the salty breeze lifts your hair, and the tides keep their promise. Discover Oyster Point anew in A Partnership with Promise.
