With You, Charleston

Josie gave up her dream of traveling the world as a wildlife photographer when Hurricane Isla destroyed everything her family had built. Now rooted in Charleston, South Carolina, she has carved out a successful career in the wedding industry, even if her own love life remains a chapter she never finished writing. When she is hired to photograph a wedding at a stunning lowcountry barn, the last thing she expects is to come face to face with the boy who once held her heart.

Samuel Greene has spent the last decade leading dangerous maritime drug interventions across the globe as an Operation Specialist in the U.S. Coast Guard. Between secret entanglements in Alaska and a life defined by impermanence, he has perfected the art of never staying. But a short leave home for his cousin's wedding pulls him back to Charleston, and back to the one person he could never fully let go. What begins as a careful pact to remain friends unravels fast under the weight of unresolved feelings, undeniable chemistry, and the grief they have each been carrying alone.

With lives built on opposite sides of the country, Samuel and Josie must confront what it truly means to choose someone, even when love demands the one thing neither of them has ever been able to give: staying. With You, Charleston is a deeply emotional second chance romance about loss, longing, and the terrifying risk of letting someone back in.
