The Quiet Between Hearts

The Quiet Between HeartsA tender small-town romance about second chances, quiet strength, and the love that finds you when you stop searching. After a devastating burnout, Briar leaves behind her high-pressure career in Chicago and returns to Cedar Valley, the peaceful mountain town where she spent her childhood summers. All she wants is solitude - and the comfort of her grandparents' old cabin tucked deep among the pines.
But solitude isn't what she finds. Instead, she meets Boone - a rugged, reclusive carpenter who's more at home with trees than people. With steady hands and guarded eyes, Boone builds homes for others but keeps the walls around his heart firmly in place. When Briar's arrival stirs something long buried in him, their quiet lives begin to intertwine. In a town where time moves slower and every sunrise feels like a new beginning, Briar and Boone discover that healing isn't about forgetting the past - it's about learning to love again, one heartbeat at a time.
