Left of Home: A Second Chance Romance
Four years ago, Mara Calloway walked away from Havermill - from the small Oregon coastal town she'd chosen, from the house she'd helped design, and from the marriage she'd let herself disappear inside. She left with the right reasons. She built the career she'd always wanted. She became the person she'd needed to become.
Then her mother fell, and Mara came home.
Owen Calloway never stopped being in Havermill. He renovated the cannery into the town's best restaurant. He kept building houses along the coast. And two years after the divorce was final, he added a studio to the house on Garnet Road - north-facing windows, wide work surface, the exact light Mara had once mentioned needing for detailed work. He told himself it made structural sense.
When Mara proposes a garden renovation at her mother's house, she needs a contractor. In Havermill, there's only one good one. Three weeks stretches into six. The professional distance holds. And then, slowly, it doesn't.
Left of Home is a slow-burn second chance romance about what it means to choose the life you almost had - not as an act of going back, but as the fullest possible act of going forward.
