Peyton Steele has everything she ever dreamed of. A powerful fiancé with political aspirations, a picture-perfect family, and two adorable, fuzzy kitty companions. Except, maybe she wasn’t dreaming big enough. Karina Knox never pictured her life like this. She never intended to be a single mom and a widow by the end of her twenties. With a young toddler to juggle and a small business, life seems to never slow down. Fast fascination takes over when Peyton crashes into Karina’s life, one that neither ever anticipated. But when fascination turns to friendship and friendship leads to something else entirely, the two of them must tread carefully to avoid life crashing down around them. The Salt in the Tides is a sapphic, small-town, single-mom romance with dual first-person POVs.
