When Newport Calls You Home
About
He left Newport chasing the future. She stayed behind protecting the place she loved. Ten years later, home gives them one more chance.
Theo Callahan never expected to return to Newport. After leaving a decade earlier, he built the successful career he once dreamed of, building waterfront redevelopment projects across New York and Boston. But success never completely erased the life—or the woman—he left behind.
Now Theo is back to oversee Harbor View, a redevelopment project that could reshape the coastal city he once called home.
Lilia Bennett never left.
After losing first her father, then her mother, she poured everything she had into building Coastal Charters and creating a life rooted in Newport's people, traditions, and waterfront. She refuses to watch the place she loves become just another development project—even if standing in its way means facing the one man she's never truly forgotten.
As professional ambitions collide with cherished memories, Theo and Lilia are thrown together again. Old feelings return, long-buried dreams resurface, and the future suddenly becomes far more complicated than either expected.
Theo came home to build something new. Lilia is determined to protect what already matters.
But if they risk their hearts one more time, can they build a future together without either of them giving up everything they've worked for—and finally claim the happily-ever-after they once lost?
Set against the breathtaking beauty of Newport, Rhode Island, When Newport Calls You Home is an emotional second-chance romance about family, forgiveness, ambition, and discovering that sometimes the place you leave behind is exactly where you're meant to be.
