He’s running from a ghost. She’s chasing the truth. In Galena, neither past nor love stays buried for long.
Jerome McGowan never meant to become the town’s cautionary tale. But after rumors explode and trust crumbles, he finds himself more isolated than ever—his reputation, his heart, and his future all hanging by a thread.
Sasha Meadows is no stranger to second chances—but this time, the stakes are different. She wants to believe in Jerome. To believe in herself. But old pain is loud, and Galena’s silence is louder.
As secrets spread and loyalties fracture, one truth becomes impossible to ignore: forgiveness takes more courage than anger ever did.
A heart-aching, one-hour short read for fans of clean later-in-life romance, emotional family drama, and small-town stories about healing, hope, and the people worth staying for.
