The Right Side of Staying
Some things are worth staying for, even when staying costs you everything. Wren Bell has kept the peace in Briarhaven her whole life. She runs the Larkspur Inn, holds the family's oldest stories, and makes herself so useful that no one ever asks her to choose a side. But the inn is failing, a property hearing is coming, and the future of everything her family lost is about to be decided in a single room.
Dane Kline is the only contractor who can open the inn's old walls before the deadline. He is also a Kline, son of the man whose bank profited while Main Street bled. Dane traded banking for honest work and quiet repair, but he cannot outrun the name on his invoices, and hiring him will look like a betrayal to everyone Wren loves. They almost crossed this line once, years ago. Now, working inside the visible damage their families left behind, the wanting comes back sharper and harder to hide.
And as the restoration peels away plaster and paperwork, it uncovers the truth someone buried decades ago, about the fire, the feud, and who really made a fortune keeping two families at war. To choose Dane, Wren has to stop hiding behind being needed and want something out loud, before the town forgives him, before the hearing, before it is ever safe. In the final chapter of the Briarhaven feud, love means standing on the record and choosing the truth, no matter what it costs.
The Right Side of Staying is the third book and emotional finale of The Briarhaven Feuds, a small-town contemporary romance series about rival families, buried truths, and love that refuses to stay quiet. Angsty, sensual, and emotionally charged, each book is a standalone with its own guaranteed happily ever after. Perfect for readers who love: Second-chance and almost-was reunions; A grumpy, capable contractor hero with a heavy last name; Small-town restoration, old inns, and buried-truth mysteries; Peacemaker heroines who finally choose for themselves; Forbidden legacy and choosing love before approval; A slow-burn, high-heat series finale that pays off the whole feud.
Content note: adult contemporary romance for readers 18+; explicit open-door scenes.
