Starlight Cove: Almost a Roommate

In Starlight Cove, summer comes with salt air, porch lights, and very little privacy.

Leo came to town for one thing: a high-pressure renovation at The Rusty Anchor. He needs quiet, clean lines, and a place to think. Instead, a housing mix-up during peak festival season lands him in the Driftwood Cottage... already occupied.

Mia is an artist who believes mess is part of the process. Music in the morning, paint on her hands, color where it does not belong. Leo's rules feel like a cage. Leo thinks Mia's chaos is a storm. And with every day they are forced to share the same roof, the temporary situation starts to feel dangerously permanent.

Between coffee at The Paper Heart, runs to the Harbor Market, and a town that notices everything, their truce turns into something neither of them planned. Slow, stubborn, and impossible to ignore.

Almost a Roommate is a clean, small-town contemporary romance about forced proximity, quiet devotion, and the kind of love that grows in the spaces you did not mean to share.
