Might as Well Be an Ocean

By: Kellan McKnight

Narrated by: Abby Craden

When a heart chooses frost over fire, can true love's warmth still find a way in?

Mara Davies learned early to keep her heart on ice. Abandoned by her mother, she raised herself while her father drowned his grief in alcohol. Everything changed when she met Fayth Havens, the one person who truly sees her and accepts everything that makes Mara different: her overstimulated mind, wandering thoughts, even her comfort in a pair of worn-out Family Guy pajamas, holes in the ass and all.

Now approaching their thirties, Mara and Fayth are best friends, though unspoken desires simmer just beneath the surface. When they strike a friends-with-benefits pact, Mara risks everything for a connection that burns hotter than she ever expected.

A twist of fate—and a piece of cake—leads to a fake engagement, forcing Mara and Fayth into an intimate tangle of buried truths. As misunderstandings threaten to pull them apart, Mara feels the distance between them might as well be an ocean. Can she open her heart to the love she's convinced herself isn't meant for her?

Might as Well Be an Ocean is a sapphic romance about chosen family and the healing power of love—because sometimes, a little Fayth is all it takes to melt the ice.

Great listen!

I really enjoyed the story. what a roller-coaster of emotions, I laughed and cried and laughed again. I can't wait to listen to it again. Abby cradden can read the back of the cereal box and it would sound sexy.

Must Read!

This book was fantastic. The character development was deep. It made me laugh, cry and think. There was enough spicy moments to keep it interesting.

💜💜

This story was everything I needed it to be and more!! I felt every emotion written into this book and Sadie carried it out FLAWLESSLY! This was an easy 5 stars for me. I related to it more than I'd have liked to, but that's what makes for a great book! Good job. Kellan on this work of art!

Some stories just stay with you

I read it several months ago and absolutely fell in love with the story. I’m seriously hoping there’s a follow-up from Faith’s point of view—fingers crossed!

The cherry on top? Abby Craden narrates it. That alone made it worth a second listen. Her voice brings so much depth to the characters.

Friends to lovers might just be my favorite trope, and this book nails it. Mara’s journey—her growth, her vulnerability, her strength—was so satisfying to witness. Beautifully written, emotionally resonant, and totally re-listenable.

Super cute and Abby is always so very amazing!!!

Thoroughly enjoyed the flashbacks and flashforwards. It provided depth and context. I simply love all books narrated by Abby!
