Head Over Eels in Laguna

Sometimes, the ocean speaks louder than words.

Clare Thompson thought she was signing up for a simple bungalow renovation—not a front-row seat to small-town gossip, slippery family secrets, and one very inconvenient crush.
Looking to reboot her life, Clare heads to sunny Laguna Beach to restore a historic seaside cottage. What she doesn’t expect? A rare, shimmering oarfish washing ashore and sending the town into a tailspin of omens, legends, and apocalyptic speculation. Suddenly, everyone’s talking—especially about Ethan Bingham, the brooding (and annoyingly handsome) local whose family seems a little too connected to the sea.
As the tides rise and secrets bubble up from the deep, Clare finds herself pulled between the safety of solid ground and the mystery lurking beneath the surface. And Ethan? Well, he’s proving just as hard to resist as the ocean’s call.
A swoony, sea-swept romance with a splash of mystery and a twist of fate, Head Over Eels in Laguna is a reminder that sometimes, love—and transformation—comes when you’re up to your knees in seawater and scandal.
In this heartfelt tale of romance, mystery, and the powerful pull of the unknown, Clare will discover that some of life’s biggest transformations come from the depths.
