Whispered Promises

A Romance Novelette

Olivia thought her biggest problem was a loud-mouthed parrot with a potato obsession until she crashes (literally) into Ethan, a grumpy but ridiculously handsome marine biologist who has zero patience for chaos… or birds that scream “Toasty love!” at strangers.

Armed with a camera, an attitude, and Mango the world’s most embarrassing parrot, Olivia is determined to photograph a rare falcon along the rugged coastline. Ethan is just trying to protect the local wildlife, and maybe survive another awkward run-in with Olivia.

Between coffee mishaps, sarcastic banter, surprise love notes, and one fiercely judgmental parrot, this slow-burn small-town rom-com is packed with heart, humor, and unexpected feels.

If you love enemies-to-lovers vibes, meddling pets, and stubborn people accidentally falling for each other, Whispered Promises delivers all the cozy chaos your heart can handle.

Just watch out for flying toast. And feelings. Lots of feelings.
