Stories of fresh starts and second chances, set in a small mountain town. Perfect for readers who enjoy reading about midlife women who are rebuilding, rediscovering, and reminding themselves that their best years are not behind them.
Two complete stories. One unforgettable town. A journey you won’t want to end.
In Cottonwood Springs, a small Rocky Mountain community, two women are about to discover that the life they didn’t plan might be exactly the one they needed.
Amy never expected to start over at fifty — but her husband’s betrayal sends her back to the town she once called home. Working at a local tackle store wasn’t the fresh start she imagined. Neither was falling for its quiet, poetry-hearted owner. But with the support of her best friend Charlotte and a community that rallies around her, Amy begins to rebuild not just her life, but her sense of purpose — and her courage to finally choose herself.
Just as Amy finds her footing, another familiar face walks into town. Charlotte’s past has just arrived in Cottonwood Springs.
Charlotte has spent over thirty years keeping that past safely behind her. But Cole Parker has a way of making the carefully ordered life she’s built feel suddenly fragile. Old secrets don’t stay buried forever — and Charlotte must decide whether she’s ready to risk her heart on a future she never let herself imagine.
Perfect for fans of Rachel Hanna, Sheridan Sayers, and Fiona Baker, this collection is an uplifting celebration of friendship, courage, and the beautiful, messy, hopeful business of beginning again.
