The storm between us

By: Hilton, Erika

Eli West has spent years keeping Echo Creek together. As sheriff, protecting the town comes naturally. Protecting his own heart is another story entirely.

When Ophelia Blake returns to Echo Creek unexpectedly pregnant and carrying the weight of a shattered past, the last person she expects to find waiting for her is Eli. The man who once knew her better than anyone. The man she never truly forgot.

With nowhere else to turn, Ophelia finds herself surrounded by the quiet comfort of mountain storms, old memories, and a town determined to pull her back in. But Echo Creek remembers everything, and rumors spread fast when a beautiful woman with secrets moves into the old inn on the edge of town.

Especially when the sheriff can't seem to stay away from her.

Eli wants to protect her. Ophelia refuses to be saved. But the closer they become, the harder it is to ignore the undeniable pull still burning between them.

Because sometimes love doesn't disappear.

Sometimes it waits for the storm to pass.

A spicy small-town romance featuring a protective sheriff, second chances, pregnancy, emotional healing, found family, and a love worth coming home to.
