Second Chances in Sweetwater Falls: A Small-Town Second Chance Romance (Sweetwater Falls Romance #1)

Emily Carter never thought she’d return to Sweetwater Falls. Ten years ago, she left the charming little town—and her high school sweetheart—behind for a fast-paced life in the city. But after a painful divorce, she’s back to help her mom recover from surgery, with no intention of staying.

Jake Lawson never left. Now the owner of a thriving construction business, he’s built a good life in Sweetwater Falls. He’s also spent the past decade trying to forget the girl who broke his heart.

When the town’s meddlesome mayor ropes Emily and Jake into co-chairing the annual Harvest Festival, they find themselves working side by side—decorating barns, sampling pumpkin pies, and navigating the gentle hum of small-town gossip. As autumn leaves swirl and old memories resurface, their connection rekindles into something neither can ignore.

But can Emily trust herself to stay this time? And can Jake risk his heart again for the woman who once walked away?

Second Chances in Sweetwater Falls is a warm, clean romance about forgiveness, love, and the magic of coming home. Perfect for fans of Hallmark movies, small-town charm, and slow-burn second chances.
