Her childhood friend Logan Walker remains a constant in her life; a road trip he offers gives their relationship new space to shift. The romance’s central tension rests on the overlap between familiar friendship and feelings that have long gone unspoken, alongside Ellie’s effort to decide what home and love mean after leaving. The edition is listed as a limited first print run with sprayed edges, subject to availability.

Book overview

A slow-burn friends-to-lovers story about coming home, healing old wounds, and realizing the love you've always needed has been right beside you all along.

**DELUXE LIMITED EDITION FIRST PRINT RUN--featuring beautiful sprayed edges. Special edition features only available for a limited time and while supplies last.**

After a betrayal that shattered her heart, Ellie Cassidy fled Faircloud, Texas, hoping time away would provide her the clarity she couldn't find in the confines of her small hometown. When the noise of the past finally quiets, she makes the hardest choice of all, to return.

Coming home means facing the whispers, the stares, and the weight of old wounds.

Faircloud has a way of testing her, and soon Ellie finds herself questioning everything all over again, especially her heart.

The only steady thing in her world? Logan Walker.

Her childhood best friend. Her fiercest protector. The boy who's quietly loved her for years and the man she's never stopped leaning on.

Logan has always stood by Ellie, even when it meant standing in the shadows. But when she needs an escape, he offers her more than just a shoulder--he offers a road trip, a chance to breathe, and maybe something she never dared hope for, a new chance at love.

As miles pass and secrets unravel, Ellie and Logan discover that sometimes, the love you've been searching for has been beside you all along, and the path back home leads straight into the arms you've always belonged in.
