Tides, Trouble & Truth Telling

A Delaney Novel

De: Greer Delaney

Narrado por: Virtual Voice

Athena Papadakis arrived in Delaney to solve a harbor dispute.

Rowan Pike was prepared to hate her on sight.

As an environmental mediator, Athena is used to walking into tense rooms, asking difficult questions, and trying to build something workable out of competing truths. But Delaney’s working harbor is more than a policy problem. It is history, livelihood, identity, and a system held together by people who know exactly what happens when outsiders start “protecting” a place they do not understand.

Rowan has spent her life on the water and has no patience for polished language, distant expertise, or anyone who thinks the harbor can be reduced to lines on a map. Athena may be sharp, composed, and frustratingly hard to dismiss, but Rowan has seen what happens when careful words turn into permanent damage.

Forced into meetings, inspections, and tense community forums, Athena and Rowan find themselves on opposite sides of the same fight—until they begin to realize they are both trying to protect the same thing.

What starts as conflict turns into respect. Respect turns into dangerous understanding. And in a town where everyone has an opinion, every compromise has a cost, and the future of the harbor hangs on getting the truth right, falling for each other may be the most complicated negotiation of all.

Set against a vivid coastal backdrop full of working-harbor politics, layered community loyalties, and sharp emotional tension, Tides, Trouble & Truth Telling is a contemporary sapphic romance about belonging, trust, and the kind of love that is earned one hard conversation at a time.
