Downloading A Picture of Us (The Friend Group Collection Book 1)

Marine Biologist Mia dreamed of something more—so when a job offer from a remote island marine conservation centre arrives, she jumps at the chance. With a new home, new role as lead biologist, and her girlfriend Tash beside her, it feels like life has finally fallen into place.

But even paradise isn’t perfect.

When a journalist twists her words into a divisive headline, the small-town trust she’s built begins to unravel. Forced to lay low while the storm passes, she turns inward, until her girlfriend Tash reminds her that she needs to breathe, and spend some time back in nature, doing what she loves. It’s shared chips on a dock, windblown sketches, and the slow, surprising pull of something magical beginning.
