The Maplewood Inn

Three sisters. One crumbling inn. A past they can't outrun. When their estranged grandmother dies, the Harper sisters are summoned back to Maplewood Hollow, the sleepy Vermont town they once fled. Their inheritance? A once-grand inn filled with dust, memories, and a three-month ultimatum: live together under its roof or lose it forever. For Margot, the pragmatic eldest, the inn is nothing more than a financial burden. For Nina, the caretaker who sacrificed her dreams for family, its faded charm stirs something she can't ignore. And for Sadie, the restless wanderer, staying still has never felt more suffocating. But when a hidden letter reveals a shocking truth—one that unravels the decades-old rift between their mother and grandmother—the sisters must decide: Will they finally confront the ghosts of their past, or will they walk away from the only home they have left? Brimming with nostalgia, buried family secrets, and the quiet magic of finding where you belong, The Maplewood Inn is a sweeping, multi-generational story perfect for readers who love deeply emotional fiction with compelling family dramas. Set in a charming small town, this novel blends heartwarming relationships, bittersweet truths, and an atmospheric New England setting that lingers long after the final page.
