Description
Some loves never fade, they bloom again
He was her first love. She was the one who got away.
Ten years ago, Lily Jones vanished without a word leaving behind a broken heart and a boy who never truly healed. Now she’s back. In the same small town. Holding the same secret she left with.
Nash Miller never expected to see her again. He’s a single dad now who, with the help of his two brothers, has been raising his daughter on a quiet ranch with more ghosts than fences. He doesn’t talk about the past. He doesn’t forgive easily. But one look at Lily, and all the years in between vanish like dust on the breeze. The tension between them is thick with everything unsaid: the silence, the heartbreak, the love that never really left. But some truths are harder to bury than others… and some chances don’t come twice.
Set against the lavender fields and weathered porches of Silver Peaks, The Lilac River is a story of second chances, quiet redemption, and a love that refuses to die.
Some things fall apart.
Some things find their way home.
And some hearts never stop hoping.

Advance Praise
"Nash and Lily’s story is steeped in yearning, heartbreak, and the kind of redemptive love that makes your chest ache. I was completely swept away." - Carrie Elks Best Selling Author
"This is everything a small-town romance should be - Just perfection." - Goodreads Reviewer
The Lilac River is an unforgettable second chance romance that surpasses all others I’ve read. Nash and Lily’s story tugged at my heartstrings, evoking a range of emotions from yearning and longing to pain and love, all while leaving me with a sense of frustration due to the ten years lost without explanation from Lily. This book truly wrecked me in the best way possible. If you’re seeking a book that will leave you with a flood of emotions, then this is the one for you. Their second chance didn’t come easily, but they never gave up on each other and fought for their love. Despite the pain and tears, their love endured, and I shed happy tears as I realized how beautiful their love truly is. It serves as a powerful reminder to never give up on the one you deeply love. Another unique touch in this book is the song for each chapter, it’s a lovely and thoughtful detail that enhances the overall reading experience. The Lilac River has become my favorite read of the year, and I eagerly anticipate the rest of the books in the series. - Goodreads Reviewer
