On windswept Narragansett Bay, an oceanographer and his nemesis—linked by two little girls—fight ecological disaster and their own demons.
He has a deep hole in his heart …can his fight to protect the ocean fill it?

But just when he discovers toxic algae threatens the entire East Coast, his sharp tongue costs him his research funding. And as he struggles to find a solution, the three-year-old grandchildren he’s felt duty-bound to avoid show up on his doorstep… in the arms of their attractive step-aunt Lainey Carmichael.
