Hidden in Plain Sight. Romance In Willow Creek, #44

Harper Hayes has spent her life painting beauty into the corners of Willow Creek while quietly hiding her heart. After years of keeping to herself, she's content with her small-town art studio and the predictable rhythm of her days-until Liam Brooks, her childhood best friend and the one man she never stopped caring about, comes back to town. Liam left Willow Creek years ago with dreams too big for small-town life.
But after years of city noise and restless nights, the town's old inn calls him home-and so does Harper. When they're asked to restore the inn together, what begins as a shared project becomes something much deeper. Between layers of paint and late-night laughter, the line between friendship and love blurs in ways neither expected. But when Harper overhears a conversation that makes her question everything, old fears resurface, and she retreats into the shadows once more.
Liam must prove that some love stories aren't meant to be hidden-they're meant to be seen, celebrated, and lived out loud. Set against the cozy charm of Willow Creek, Hidden in Plain Sight is a heartfelt friends-to-lovers story about rediscovering trust, letting go of fear, and finding the courage to be truly seen by the one who's always known your heart.
