When tech-savvy Aly Bennett loses her job in San Francisco, she does what any self-respecting millennial in crisis would do—she hops a plane to Martha’s Vineyard.

Comforted by her childhood best friend, Aly trades Wi-Fi for ocean waves, laptops for lambs, and the hustle of city life for something slower, gentler, and unexpectedly real.

As the Island works its magic, Aly crosses paths with Whit Dias, a local fisherman with a bruised and wary heart. The attraction is unexpected—and undeniable. Aly begins to imagine a future that isn’t driven by apps and ambition, until the tug of her old life—and the secrets she’s kept hidden—threaten to undo everything.

Join Aly, Whit, and an endearing cast of Vineyard characters in a charming, sea-swept tale of friendship, forgiveness, and the messy, beautiful work of finding yourself—and love.

“Bell has done it again with a delicious Martha’s Vineyard love story...Sheepish is a beautiful ride through some of the Island’s most iconic beaches, trails, and neighborhoods–it will transport you to the Vineyard no matter where you are! Toss it in your beach bag and enjoy the escape.” — Julia Spiro, best-selling author of Such a Good Mom, Full, and Someone Else’s Secret.

“A story full of fun and romance…As a master storyteller, Bell Keeps us turning the page as the narrative tangles and untangles, proving opposites attract…Bell, a seasonal resident, gets the little details right about the Island that makes us insiders smile.”  The Martha’s Vineyard Times, June 4, 2025
