Love After the Storm (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781944260255)

A woman running from her past. A man who knows what he wants. A love waiting to be found.

After losing her husband, mystery writer Kara Keaton packed up her life and moved to the quiet town of Stonebridge, seeking solace in fresh beginnings. Between writing her next novel, restoring the century-old house she impulsively bought, and struggling to keep the plants in her greenhouse alive, she keeps herself busy. But no amount of work stops her from looking forward to her daily visits to The Plumber's Pub-a place filled with warmth, laughter, and one bartender she can't seem to ignore.

Ben Roberts is the rock of his family, the man who keeps their beloved pub running like clockwork. Loyal, steady, and impossibly handsome, he's not one for games-when he wants something, he goes after it. And from the moment he lays eyes on the enigmatic Kara, he knows he wants her. But breaking through the walls she's carefully built around her heart proves to be more challenging than he expected.

As a fierce spring storm sweeps through New England, Kara begins to realize that some risks are worth taking. The more time she spends with Ben, the more she sees a future she never thought possible. But opening her heart again means facing the fear of loss-and trusting that love, this time, might just be worth the leap.

Can Kara embrace the possibility of a new love, or will her past keep her locked away in a story she was never meant to finish?

A heartfelt tale of resilience, romance, and the unexpected beauty of second chances.
