Catch of the Day

She came to Driftwood Cove to launch a food truck. She didn’t plan on parking next to the grumpiest chef on the boardwalk.

Harper has one summer to prove her pink food truck, Harper’s Catch, isn’t a wildly expensive mistake. Armed with shrimp tacos, a questionable generator, and enough stubborn optimism to power half the boardwalk, she’s ready to make Driftwood Cove her fresh start.

Unfortunately, her assigned parking spot is right beside The Anchor, the beloved local restaurant owned by Wes, a serious, rule-following chef who believes in tradition, precision, and absolutely not having a pink food truck steal his lunch crowd.

Harper thinks Wes is uptight. Wes thinks Harper is chaos mixed with cilantro. The town thinks their rivalry is the best entertainment Driftwood Cove has seen in years.

Soon there are competing specials, team T-shirts, a chalkboard scoreboard, and a Fourth of July seafood cookoff that forces Harper and Wes to work together instead of glaring across the boardwalk. But somewhere between late-night water bottles, kitchen practice sessions, and one very meddlesome grandmother, their competition starts to feel a lot like chemistry.

Harper only planned to stay for the summer.

Wes is starting to hope she’ll stay for much longer.

In Driftwood Cove, the gossip travels faster than the tide… and love might just be the catch of the day.
