THEY WERE EACH OTHER’S FIRST EVERYTHING. UNTIL THE DAY HE LEFT.
Lark Westwood never planned on staying in Summit Springs, Montana forever. But after a loss that shattered her world, the only thing she could do was survive—for her son, for the Bluebell diner, and for the memory of the aunt who raised her. She doesn’t have time for the past. Especially not the boy who broke her heart twelve years ago.
Boone Wilding never wanted to come home. But when duty calls him back to the ranch that built him, he’s forced to reckon with the life he walked away from—and the woman he never stopped loving.
Now, back in the same town, on the same land, Boone and Lark are forced to confront everything they left unsaid. Old wounds resurface. Secrets come to light. And as the fight to save the Bluebell heats up, so does a love that never truly burned out..
Some stories don’t end. Some roots run too deep.
And some people—no matter the years, the distance, or the damage—are meant to find their way back.
