'' Winner – Firebird Book Award (Romance)
Some stories don’t just change your life.
They help you rebuild it.
After ten years in a toxic relationship, Sadie Reed is done being anyone’s cautionary tale. By day, she edits other people’s stories—polishing their words and pushing their dreams forward—while quietly abandoning her own.
So when she’s offered one impossible assignment—to fly to a quiet English village and convince reclusive bestselling author Corbyn Pearce to finish the novel he’s been avoiding—she says yes.
Corbyn is brilliant.
Corbyn is infuriating.
Corbyn is absolutely not interested in being handled.
Scarred by a tragic accident and locked behind walls he refuses to lower, he has driven away every editor sent his way—until Sadie.
Their clash is immediate. Sharp wit turns into creative friction. Creative friction turns into something neither of them is prepared for. And when a long-buried truth ties them to a single, unforgettable moment from their past, Sadie begins to wonder whether this assignment was coincidence… or something far less random.
As late-night conversations soften professional boundaries and tentative trust begins to form, old wounds resurface—hers from the man she escaped, his from the betrayal he never recovered from.
Now Sadie must decide:
Is she brave enough to rewrite her story?
And will Corbyn choose to be part of it?
Between the Lines is a heartfelt, slow-burn romance about healing, found family, emotional safety, and the quiet ways fate nudges us toward the people we’re meant to find—where love doesn’t erase the past, but grows patiently beside it.
Genre: Romance
