About this listen

Photographer Claire Bennett drives eight hours for quiet coastal shots—only to find the Sugar Gull Inn buried in scaffolding and her “charming cottage” double booked with a scowling carpenter. Miles Hart is too busy racing renovation deadlines to babysit a city stranger, but Martha’s clerical error leaves them roommates in a 700-square-foot carriage house, one bathroom, zero patience. Soon sticky note fridge borders, thermostat skirmishes, and a blueberry pie disaster at Gull Games have the whole town placing bets on who snaps first.

Yet between the shared pullout couch, late night generator saves, and accidental slow dances, snark turns into sparks neither of them planned. When Claire’s dream gallery offer tempts her to run, Miles trades his toolbox for a lastminute road trip and the most endearingly botched grand gesture ever attempted. Come for the enemies to roommates chaos; stay for the crab attacks, crooked welcome signs, and a love story that finds its focus where the sea meets home.
