Deadly Homecoming (Home Sweet Holidays): A Small Town Romantic Suspense

Coming home was supposed to save her. It might destroy her instead.

After a devastating breakup, travel photographer Mia Williams returns to her hometown of Cedar Ridge for the holidays—a picturesque winter wonderland where everyone knows your name and Christmas magic is real.

Or so she thought.

Luke Spencer, the town's sheriff and her brother's dangerously attractive best friend, has loved Mia in secret for eight years. Now she's back, and he'll do whatever it takes to keep her safe.

Even if it means keeping deadly secrets.

When Mia discovers her father's death was murder—not a heart attack—she's pulled into a dangerous investigation that exposes corruption at the heart of Cedar Ridge. Someone powerful wants the truth buried. And they'll kill to keep it that way.

Threatening messages. Midnight ambushes. A conspiracy that reaches further than anyone imagined.

As Mia and Luke dig deeper, the line between ally and enemy blurs. Trust becomes deadly. And the only way to survive is to uncover who's behind the lies... before they become the next victims.

But the most dangerous thing in Cedar Ridge isn't the killer hunting Mia.

It's her feelings for the man who's been lying to her from the start.

A pulse-pounding romantic suspense set in a small town with deadly secrets. Perfect for fans of winter romance, FBI thrillers, and second-chance love stories with heart-stopping twists.


"Gripping, romantic, and utterly unputdownable. Cedar Ridge will steal your heart—and stop it."
