THE ART OF HEALING By : Alexa Aston
Coastal Dreams #2 Keaton Maxwell; Layne Larson B0GDGLQ53R Add to Wish List
Romance Small Town
Two wounded souls. One coastal town. A chance to heal together.
Keaton Maxwell has survived more than his share of hardship. After a childhood spent in foster care, he found solace in art—using paint and canvas to express the emotions he never learned to share. When a painful betrayal shatters his sense of stability, Keaton leaves the mountains of Wyoming behind and heads to Driftwood Bay, opening Gulf Coastal Gallery in search of peace and a fresh start.
Layne Larson’s life unravels all at once. Her company is sold, her longtime relationship ends, and then she loses her parents—leaving her grieving, jobless, and suddenly the owner of the Bay Breeze Inn. Returning to her hometown was never part of the plan, but restoring the neglected bed-and-breakfast offers Layne a way to rebuild and reclaim control of her future.
When their paths cross in Driftwood Bay, the connection between Keaton and Layne is immediate—and unexpected. Drawn together by shared loss and quiet understanding, they find comfort in one another as they work side by side to bring the Bay Breeze back to life. Keaton’s steady patience and empathy soothe Layne’s fractured heart, while her strength and resilience give him hope he hasn’t felt in years.
But healing isn’t linear, and the shadows of the past don’t fade easily.
Will fear and lingering grief pull them apart—or will Keaton and Layne find the courage to embrace the love that’s growing between them and the future waiting just beyond the shore?
