Coming home was never part of my plan, but here I am-back in the town that’s equal parts nostalgia and chaos, standing in the shadow of family drama and history I can’t quite shake. My name is Clara, and I left Evergreen Hollow to escape the ghosts of my past. Turns out, they were waiting for me all along, in the form of a certain Carter Blackwood. Charming, infuriating, and always up to something, Carter seems determined to dig up everything we both buried years ago. And now, I’m stuck navigating the mess our families left behind, all while trying to figure out where I belong in this little corner of the world. Am I here to make peace? To reignite old flames? Or maybe just to figure out if I can still make apple cider without burning the house down. One thing’s for sure, I’m not the same girl who left, and Evergreen Hollow isn’t ready for the woman I’ve become. Are you ready to dive into the chaos with me?
