Synopsis

Award-winning wildlife photographer Elijah Ellis has come back home due to the tragic accident that killed members of both his and his best friend Tabitha Brodie's family. Despite their grief, Eli hopes that he and Tabby can pick up their familiar friendship. He's never forgotten the way Tabby makes him feel—full of hope and a sense of home—but she seems determined to keep him at arm's length.

Tabby has always loved Eli. He's everything she wants in a man. But he left Gatlinburg to make a name for himself outside of his famous family. Even though there's no one better to help her through this time, she refuses to be an anchor to a life he never wanted. Not to mention Tabby's hiding a secret that will change all of their lives.

As Eli and Tabby spend more time together, he's determined to show her they could be perfect together. Too bad she's spent years building her walls against him . . .

About Jennifer Hoopes

Contemporary romance author Jennifer Hoopes lives in a small town in Pennsylvania with her husband and two daughters. Add two cats and a dog, and the fur flies sometimes. Stories have been in her head for as long as she recognized every person had one, and figuring out how two people meet and fall in love makes for a rewarding dream job.

When not writing, she wears the many mom hats of PTO, dance, and music, all while driving a mean mom-taxi. She loves caramel and roller coasters, plays a solo version of Carpool Karaoke, and cannot live without coffee and Jane Austen adaptations.
