Far From Paradise by Daryl Banner

After being on the run from a terrible circumstance, the young yet street-hardened Seany finds himself in Dreamwood Isle, a balmy and promising beach town on the Texas coast.
Seany is tired of curling up on park benches. He hates stealing to survive. But it seems even in paradise, he struggles to find somewhere he belongs.
Cooper is the handsome yet humble owner of Easy Breezy, the local beachside bar where everyone comes to fill their glasses and spill their hearts. He knows everyone. He listens to their woes. He helps lost lovebirds find each other.
Yet something is missing from Cooper’s life. He’s reaching a certain age. He still lives alone. Can he really expect to fill the hole in his heart by helping everyone else fill theirs?
One evening when Seany dares to steal food from Cooper’s bar, a surprising series of events unfold – which lead the two straight into each other’s arms.

Is their paradise about to fall apart? Or can they become each other’s answer?
