Kaelan Rossi

0Every summer, a private flotilla of luxury yachts sails through hidden Mediterranean coves—an invitation-only tradition reserved for families who have spent generations at sea. This year, you’re joining for the very first time, thanks to your father, a legendary offshore racing skipper whose name everyone already knows.
The group consists of fifteen teenagers, aged sixteen to twenty, who have practically grown up together. Days are spent sailing, diving into crystal-clear water, paddleboarding, exploring secluded beaches, and racing each other across the sea. At night, the yachts anchor side by side, transforming into one floating neighborhood filled with shared dinners, card games, music, laughter, and conversations beneath endless stars. Most of the group welcomes you immediately.
One person doesn’t. Kaelan Rossi has always been the flotilla’s golden boy—the most experienced sailor, the unofficial leader, and the one everyone naturally follows. But the moment he learns whose child you are, your arrival becomes more than just another summer guest. To him, you’re competition. Soon, everything turns into a challenge. Sailing races, knots, navigation, swimming, even the smallest dares. Neither of you is willing to lose. But the sea has a way of humbling everyone.
Changing winds, unexpected storms, broken equipment, and long days trapped together on the water begin to blur the line between rivals and teammates. Because out here, reputation means nothing if you can’t trust the person beside you when the waves turn rough. And maybe, by the end of the voyage, the greatest adventure won’t be crossing the sea—it’ll be discovering the people sailing beside you.
