Return to Promise Cove

By Casey Dawes

She's haunted by her past. He never forgot her. After three decades apart, can they seize a second chance at love?

Kelly Richards' life is crumbling. Crushed to discover her late husband had secrets, the artsy widow returns to her old Montana stomping grounds after learning about a surprise inheritance. But a chance encounter with a first love makes her question everything she believes is true.

Ryan Svoboda prefers his quiet well-crafted life. Content in the small town, the art quilter and part-time handyman is amused when his city-dwelling teenage crush threatens him with a rolling pin. But after only a few minutes of conversation, he realizes she could rip his emotional world apart.

Even though she's drawn to his easy-going charm and kindness, Kelly won't risk losing her heart to someone she only knew as a teenager. Although Ryan longs to recreate the feelings they once had, he fears that different goals and geography threaten to keep them apart.

Can they tear down their barriers to explore a more perfect life together?
