One Last Autumn: A second chance romance

By Jensen Rose Long

Lainey knows what to do when things fall apart. So when the production she's working on suddenly shuts down and her boyfriend ends their relationship on the same day, she does what she always does. She starts looking for the next thing.

Instead, she ends up in Breakaway Shores, staying at her friends' empty beach house for a few quiet days. Except the house isn't empty. Bob is already there. Once, he was her best friend. Then her first love. He became the heartbreak she measured every other one against.

They've spent years in the same orbit, carefully avoiding everything they never resolved. Bob has gotten good at that distance. He had to. Because while Lainey moved forward, at least from where he was standing, some part of him never did. Now an injury forces Bob to question the future he thought he understood, while Lainey tries to figure out what comes next for her too.

Sharing a house brings back the quiet mornings, long hikes, late-night conversations, and familiar ease they thought they'd lost. For Lainey, being close to Bob means remembering how badly losing him once hurt. For Bob, it means trying not to hope too much for the one thing he's wanted longer than he's willing to admit.

They already know how easily they can love each other.

This time, they have to decide whether they can trust it enough to stay.
