Carried by the Current: When Surrendering to Grace Means Surrendering Your Heart (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798184829012)

She came back to Pelican Cove for tide charts and solitude-and walked straight into a baptism, a soaking wave, and the most inconveniently faithful man she had ever met.

Marine biologist Maya Chen has spent five years measuring the ocean and keeping God at arm's length. Returning to her coastal hometown for a summer research contract feels safe: twelve weeks of salt air, careful science, and no one asking questions she doesn't want to answer. What she doesn't count on is Pelican Cove itself-and Caleb Torres, the search-and-rescue coordinator whose calm, unhurried faith has a way of dismantling walls she spent a decade building.

Caleb lost his younger brother to a riptide and found God in the wreckage. He is not looking for love. But something about Maya's guarded eyes and quick wit will not leave him alone-and the beach they both call their territory keeps pulling them together whether they plan it or not.

As summer deepens, so do the questions Maya can no longer outrun: Is the life she planned the life she actually wants? And is she brave enough to surrender-to grace, to community, and to the man standing patient on the shore?

• Faith that feels real: A woman's honest, complicated return to God-full of doubt, humor, and hard-won grace
• Clean romance with genuine heat: Slow-burn tension, stolen almost-kisses, and a love built on honesty rather than convenience
• A setting that breathes: A Pacific coastal town where the ocean is teacher, mirror, and baptismal font all at once
• Characters you'll root for: A scientist afraid to hope and a rescuer learning he can ask to be rescued
• A story that lingers: Warm, funny, and quietly profound-perfect for a single cozy reading session

Perfect for fans of Denise Hunter, Becky Wade, and Rachel Hauck-or anyone who has ever stood at the edge of the water and wondered if they were still allowed to come home.
