Save Me In Winter

By Hope Smith

In a snow-covered town where the sun barely rises, a quiet girl finds a stranger's suicide letter hidden inside a donated book. What begins as obsession becomes connection. What begins as rescue becomes love. And what begins as goodbye becomes the first word of a new life.

Ivy Laurent works nights in her failing family bookstore, searching for purpose in a life that feels frozen in place. S ren Vinter is a reclusive fisherman with a broken past, leaving farewell notes inside secondhand novels because he's too gentle to let anyone watch him disappear.

When a blizzard traps them together, their silent letters turn into spoken truths. But S ren's depression runs deeper than any storm, and Ivy's need to save him masks wounds of her own. To build a future, they must learn the hardest lesson of all: love isn't rescue-it's choosing to stay.
