Omschrijving

Love on the Horizon is a tender, heart-stirring coming-of-age romance set against the rugged beauty of the Devon coast. It follows seventeen-year-old Lila Hart, who leaves behind the comfort of her small hometown to spend the summer working at a seaside café. She expects nothing more than long shifts, salty air, and the ache of homesickness. Instead, she finds herself pulled into a season that will change her forever.

From the moment she arrives, Lila feels the tug of the ocean and the weight of independence. The café becomes her anchor, with its warmth, bustle, and Ella, the kind-hearted woman who takes her in. There, Lila meets Owen, a steady, thoughtful coworker whose quiet strength steadies her in moments of doubt. Patient and grounded, Owen quickly becomes a safe harbor in the chaos of her new life.

But Devon also brings Jamie Carter, a local surfer with saltwater in his veins and a reckless grin that unsettles and excites Lila in equal measure. Jamie crashes into her world with all the force of the tide—teasing, daring, and pulling her toward midnight swims, cliffside walks, and bonfires on the beach. He's unpredictable and impossible to ignore, a storm that stirs something inside her she didn't know was waiting to be found.

Caught between two very different kinds of connection—the quiet, reassuring steadiness of Owen and the fiery, untamed energy of Jamie—Lila begins to question who she is becoming. Is she the dependable girl her parents raised, or someone braver, someone who dares to take risks and follow the pull of her own heart?

Through whispered late-night conversations, journal entries scrawled in secret, and the constant push and pull of the sea, Lila must navigate first love in all its messy, exhilarating, and heartbreaking forms. The gossip of a close-knit town, the pressure of growing up, and the temptation of summer freedom only make her choices more complicated.

Love on the Horizon is more than just a summer romance—it's a story of identity, courage, and the ways love can both ground us and set us free. With prose that captures the tang of salt air, the thrill of first kisses, and the ache of standing at life's edge, this novel immerses readers in the beauty and turmoil of youth.

For anyone who remembers the intensity of their first love—the dizzying mix of excitement and fear, safety and danger—this book will feel like coming home and setting sail all at once.

At its heart, it asks: When the horizon beckons with both risk and promise, will you choose safety… or let the tide pull you toward something unknown but extraordinary?
