Waited With Heart: Book 2 of the Maple Ridge Series

Waited With HeartA Maple Ridge Romance – Book Two

She owns the town’s coziest bookshop.
He runs the quiet hardware store next door.
They’ve been circling each other for years—until one moment changes everything.

Sarah Langley has built a peaceful life in Maple Ridge. Her days are filled with books, lemon muffins, and the comforting routine of running her little shop. But beneath the well-worn smiles and community charm, she’s tired of waiting for something more—especially when it comes to Michael Brooks.

Michael has always been steady. Reliable. The man who fixes everything for everyone… except himself. For years, he’s kept his feelings for Sarah tucked away like the hand-carved pieces he never shows anyone. But when a leaky pipe turns into an unexpected moment of closeness, the quiet rhythm between them begins to shift.

As snow falls and power flickers out, small acts of kindness become confessions in disguise. And when one misunderstanding threatens to undo it all, both must decide if they’re willing to risk the safe silence they’ve always known for a love that’s been waiting all along.

Filled with slow-burn longing, heart-warming community, and the soft kind of love that changes everything, Waited With Heart is a cozy small-town romance that will leave you smiling long after the last page.
