After catching my fiancé tangled up with my sister (yes, my sister), and being told by my parents I was “overreacting,” I packed my best friend and what was left of my dignity to flee to Wayward Hollow - a picturesque little town that looks like it was plucked straight out of a Hallmark movie.
I try to put myself back together. People-pleasing? Officially retired. Love? Off the table.
At least that was the plan.
But Chaos unfolds when my attempt to save a stray cat leads me to Henry. The town’s beloved veterinarian is gentle, ridiculously attractive, and seems to have a sixth sense for broken things...including me.
Just when I start to believe in new beginnings, the past comes knocking—loud, uninvited, and far from finished.A Love Like Pumpkin Spice is a comforting, feel-good read for anyone who loves headstrong fmc's, sassy best friends, emotional healing, and small-town chaos with a whole lot of heart, and just a sprinkle of drama and the paranormal.
