The Cobbler’s Gift. Romance In Willow Creek, #84

Marina Li has always relied on Elias Wood-her childhood friend, her confidant, and the steady hand who carries her flowers and shares her laughter at every Willow Creek Spring Fair. But beneath years of friendship, a quiet love has been growing in Elias's heart, stitched carefully into a pair of handcrafted shoes designed just for her. When Marina accidentally discovers his secret gift, both are thrown into a whirlwind of emotions-fear, hope, and the realization that their feelings have been mutual all along.
From accidental touches and stormy shelter beneath a fair booth to tender moments under the old sycamore tree, Marina and Elias must navigate the leap from friends to lovers. The Cobbler's Gift is a heartwarming story of love, courage, and the beauty of taking life-and love-one step at a time.
