Welcome to Silver Pines-where the coffee is strong, the neighbors are lovingly nosy, and coming home is never as simple as it sounds. After years away, Clare Garner returns to her hometown ready to restore antiques, rebuild her life, and enjoy the comfort of familiar faces. Her high school sweetheart, Jackson Barrett, is finally back in her orbit… until Blake Catalano-her charming college ex-waltzes into town with secrets and a smile. When a body turns up, both men land on the suspect list, and Clare finds herself juggling gossip, sawdust, and a mystery that won't stay buried. Small-town charm can only carry you so far-especially when murder moves in next door.
