Some roads lead away from home. Others lead you back. Elena Hartley spent ten years running from Willow Creek, Montana-and from the man she left behind. As a successful Chicago attorney, she built the perfect life, or so she thought. But when her grandmother falls ill and the family bookstore needs saving, Elena has no choice but to return to the small town she swore she'd never see again. The only problem? Liam Mercer is still there.
He's the boy she loved with her whole heart. The man she abandoned without explanation. And now he's building the community center right next door to her grandmother's bookstore, making it impossible to avoid the past-or the feelings she thought she'd buried. Mile Marker 23 is where their story began-Under starlit Montana skies, two teenagers made promises they couldn't keep. Mile Marker 23 is where memories return-A place that holds both their greatest joy and deepest heartbreak.
Mile Marker 23 is where everything will be decided-Can Elena finally stop running and face the truth about why she left? Can Liam forgive the woman who shattered his heart? And can a love that survived ten years of silence find its way home?
