Dogwood Hollow

She walked away to save herself. He had to lose everything to find his way back. Rhea made the hardest decision of her life when she left Gray Garrison, lead singer of Case in Point. Now, she's hiding in a small Georgia mountain town, serving coffee at a café and trying to piece together a life without him. The last thing she expects is for Gray to walk through her door at ninety-one days sober with shaking hands and a plea for a second chance. Gray's always been better at writing hit songs than keeping promises. In a village where everyone knows your business and matchmaking neighbors won't mind their own, he must prove he's not the same man who broke her heart. As Gray works to rebuild trust one day at a time, Rhea must decide if she can risk her heart again. From coffee shop mornings to starlit concerts in the village square, their story becomes the talk of the town. When Gray's past threatens to pull him under again, they'll both learn that true love isn't about saving someone. It's about creating space for them to save themselves. The Ballad of Us is an emotional journey about two broken people who discover that the strongest relationships aren't perfect-they're just perfectly worth fighting for. Perfect for fans of second-chance romance, rock star heroes, small-town charm, and love stories that prove broken things can become beautiful.
