Still Water : A Small Town Romance

She came back to sell it. She stayed because it wouldn't let her go. When Nora Callahan inherits her father's half-finished lakeside inn in Hadley Lake, Vermont, she arrives with a plan: assess the property, find a buyer, and get back to her life in Boston. She's an architect. She knows buildings. She can handle this. What she didn't expect was Sam Greer. He's been restoring the Callahan Inn for eight months - the carpenter her father hired because of six words: "I know what this wants to be." He's twenty-seven, rooted in this Vermont town, and entirely unimpressed by Nora's timeline.
And when a November storm leaves them stranded in the building together, something shifts in the warm firelight that neither of them is ready to name. The inn holds secrets: fourteen letters her father wrote before he died, an antique guest book spanning decades, and a dock built at exactly the right angle to catch the light through the mountains. The more Nora learns about what her father built - and why - the harder it becomes to leave.
Still Water is a slow-burn small town romance about a woman learning to stop running, a man who builds things to last, and a building that was always waiting for the right person to come home.
