Downloading The Dock Between Us

A slow-burn small-town LGBTQ+ romance about rebuilding what matters—and discovering love where you least expect it.

Nora Callahan never planned to inherit the family’s crabbing business. She certainly never expected to fall for Elle, the sarcastic, stunning marine mechanic who shows up to fix more than broken equipment. When Nora’s father dies suddenly and a fire guts their dock, everything she thought she understood about home, legacy, and love begins to unravel.

But Elle has secrets of her own. A former model turned mechanic, she walked away from glamor to find something real. Together, they weather grief, bureaucracy, and literal storms to rebuild a boat—and a life—neither of them imagined.

As tides rise and seasons change, Nora and Elle must decide what to keep, what to let go, and whether love is something worth staying for.
