Hope Bennett always believed in happy endings…she just never expected to find her own on the aisles of her family’s general store. Raised in the foster system and adopted at nine, Hope grew up learning to be helpful, quiet, and to cause “no trouble at all.” Now she’s an adult and is trying to build a life that feels like her own…even if she’s still learning how to find what makes her happy.
When Emmet Walker returns to Willow Creek, he’s only planning to pick up supplies…not to lose his heart over the soft-spoken woman behind the counter. But one smile, one walk by the counter, and one hand-carved gift later, he’s fallen faster than he meant to.
Hope has spent her whole life trying to be perfect so no one would walk away.
Emmet has spent his whole life believing that love comes with loss.
Pick up this heartfelt story from Christy Webb about romance, healing, belonging, and the beautiful truth that it’s never too late for happily ever after. Happy Reading!
