Star Crossed (Falls Mountain Romance)

By Maddie James

A first love worth fighting for. A truth fifteen years overdue. A second chance that could change everything.When children's advocate attorney Jasmine Walker returns to Harbor Falls after fifteen years away, she expects to settle her foster mother's estate and slip quietly back to Atlanta. Instead, she collides with Jack Ackerman-the only boy she ever loved, and the man she left without a word.

Jack never understood why Jasmine ran. One look at her now and all the years in between fall away. When Ms. Leinie's final wishes tie Jasmine to a new community project-and to Jack-neither can avoid the past they've tried so hard to outrun.

But Harbor Falls holds more than memories. It holds secrets. Pain. And the echo of a love that once burned bright under the Carolina stars.

As revelations unfold and emotions rekindle, Jasmine must decide if she can finally stop running... And Jack must decide whether to take a second chance on the only woman he's ever loved.

A heartfelt, emotional small-town romance about forgiveness, hope, and finding your way back home.
