The Cottage by the Sea: New Beginnings (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798276319827)

At sixty-five, just months shy of sixty-six, Coral Matthews finally chooses herself. After decades of loss, duty, and putting everyone else first, she leaves the life she's known behind and escapes to a quiet island where the waves promise rest, renewal and a chance to breathe again.

Starting over at her age isn't easy -- she arrives alone, uncertain, and carrying a lifetime of heartbreak. But the island welcomes her with open arms. Warm ocean mornings, bustling markets, new friendships, and unexpected peace begin to stitch her spirit back together.

And then there's her charming next-door neighbor, a man whose steady presence and quiet smiles make Coral feel seen -- really seen -- for the first time in more years than she cares to admit.

As she explores the island and rediscovers joy, creativity, and her own worth, Coral learns that healing doesn't come in grand moments, but in small, daily choices. And just when she begins to believe in her future again, she realizes her journey is only beginning.

Book One of the Coral Series -- a heartfelt story of reinvention, late-life bravery, and finding love when the world finally slows down enough for you to feel it.
