Overview
Welcome back to the Outer Banks in this touching dual-timeline story where healing begins, faith grows stronger, and love finds you when you least expect it.
Filled with coastal charm and heartfelt faith, The Island Bikeshop is a clean, contemporary romance that reminds readers that God's timing is always perfect.
After a life-changing accident two years ago, Lara Marshall is finally reclaiming the life she feared she'd lost. Back at her family's beloved bookstore in North Carolina's beautiful Outer Banks, she's celebrating milestones that once seemed impossible—driving again, riding a bicycle, and daring to hope for a future filled with new possibilities.
When bestselling author Byron Mercer arrives to research the Wright Brothers, Lara is captivated by his charm, intellect, and shared love of books. Meanwhile, Asher Quidley, who has quietly loved Lara for years, is thrilled when she asks him to help her regain her confidence on a bicycle. But as Lara grows closer to Byron, Asher fears he'll never be more than a friend.
As Lara embraces healing and newfound independence, she must decide between a romance that seems lifted from the pages of a novel and the steady, faith-filled love that has been waiting beside her all along. Set against the breathtaking backdrop of the Outer Banks, this heartfelt Christian romance celebrates hope, second chances, and trusting God's perfect timing.
