The stakes can’t be higher…

When high-powered investment banker Ava McCarthy returns to the Butterfly Lake Lodge for her mother’s seventy-fifth birthday, the moment is bittersweet. The beloved family retreat—steeped in memories of childhood and sisterhood—will soon be sold, and this may be their final celebration within its walls.

What she never expected was that her parents would hire Hunter Beckett — the man who broke her heart and secretly fathered her daughter — to broker the sale.

Hunter didn’t come just for the commission. He arrived determined to set things straight with Ava, but when he spots a photo of a young girl in a ballet costume at the lodge, the resemblance hits like a thunderclap. She’s his.

Now, old wounds, regrets, and fierce emotions reignite as Ava and Hunter confront their past. She can’t forget how he hurt her. He won’t walk away from his child—or the chance to finally build a future with the woman he still loves.

Traces of You is a small-town, second-chance romance with a single parent, a wounded hero, and a protector you’ll fall for. Perfect for fans of family drama, emotional romance, and slow-burning love.
