The Last Interview With You
Ten years ago, Sophie Bennett left Blackwood Haven with a broken heart and one painful certainty: Evan Mercer had promised to meet her at the train station, but he never came. She built a new life far from the coastal town, becoming a successful architect and learning to bury every memory of the boy who had once promised to leave with her.Now her father is dead, and Sophie has returned to Cedar Crest for one final task. She intends to sign away the family estate to developer Carter Dawson, collect the money, and leave Blackwood Haven behind forever. But her father's final will contains an unexpected condition. Before Sophie can sell or demolish the estate, she must personally catalog every room, archive, lockbox, and forgotten object inside the decaying mansion.Worse, the property has been declared a structural hazard. To complete the sale, Sophie must have the historic terrace restored by the only qualified craftsman who can satisfy the town's preservation requirements.His name is Evan Mercer.The man waiting at the harbor is no longer the boy Sophie remembers. Ten years of separation, hardship, and unanswered questions have transformed him into a guarded master craftsman who has built his entire life around the old boatyard. Their reunion forces both of them to confront the night that destroyed their future-and the painful truth that neither of them ever understood what really happened.As Sophie searches through her father's house, she uncovers hidden letters, buried evidence, and carefully constructed lies that reveal how deeply her family interfered with the lives of two young people who only wanted to escape together. Every discovery brings her closer to the truth, but also makes leaving Evan behind a second time increasingly impossible.When the past finally comes into the light, Sophie must decide whether Cedar Crest should become another monument to her father's control or something entirely different. And Evan must decide whether the woman standing before him is still the girl he lost-or someone he can choose to love again.The Last Interview With You is an emotional second-chance romance about lost love, family secrets, betrayal, forgiveness, and rebuilding a future from the ruins of the past. It is a story about two people discovering that some goodbyes were never truly their choice-and that love sometimes returns only after both hearts have learned how to survive without it.
