After their high school romance ended, Caleb Walker packed up and left Juniper Ridge behind. Ten years later — newly single and longing for a fresh start — he finds himself back in the mountain town he once called home.

Emily Hayes — now Emily Thomas — thought she’d built the life she was meant to have. Marriage, a family, a future. But in one devastating night, loss and betrayal turned her world upside down, leaving her to raise her little girl on her own.

When Caleb unexpectedly steps back into her life, the pull between them is as strong as ever. But trust is delicate, and old heartbreaks have a way of lingering.

As autumn wraps the town in golden leaves and crisp mountain air, Caleb and Emily find themselves drawn together by shared memories, gentle moments, and the hope of something new. To have the future they’ve both dreamed of, they’ll need to let go of the past… and believe in the magic of second chances.

A sweet, small-town romance about first love, healing hearts, and finding your way home.
