Carolina Heat

Carolina Heat is a slice-of-life romance visual novel about Ethan, a quiet architect whose predictable coastal routine is turned upside down when two beautiful women move into the vacant house next door.

Ethan spends most of his days working from home enjoying the calm privacy of his beachside neighborhood. That changes when Clare and Jess arrive.

After a sudden house fire destroys their home, Clare and Jess find themselves staying with Ethan while they figure out what comes next. What begins as a simple act of kindness slowly develops into something deeper, warmer, and far more intimate.
