Snowflakes and Secrets

Under a blanket of snow, Willow Creek hides more than just its winter beauty—it holds the secrets of two hearts trying to find their way back to life. Lena Hart returned to the small town bakery she inherited from her grandmother, determined to rebuild both her business and her sense of self. But beneath the scent of sugar and cinnamon lies a truth she's never told anyone: she didn't come home for peace—she came home because she couldn't face the world beyond it. When travel writer Evan Jameson arrives in town searching for a story about loss and healing, he doesn't expect to find his own reflection in Lena's eyes. She's everything he didn't know he was missing: fierce, fragile, and far too familiar. As snow falls and secrets surface, what begins as quiet companionship deepens into something neither of them can ignore. But when Evan's career calls him away and Lena's past threatens to pull her back under, they must decide whether love can survive the truth—or if some hearts are meant to be left buried beneath the snow. Tender, steamy, and full of small-town charm, Snowflakes and Secrets is a story about forgiveness, belonging, and the love that finds us when we finally stop running.
