The Way Back To Us: Sometimes the past is the only road to the future
Ten years ago, war correspondent Nolan West made the hardest choice of his life-he walked away from the woman he loved to chase a story he thought would make a difference. But the truth he found overseas came at a steep price, leaving behind scars, silence, and a single haunting name: Kamir.
Now, broken in body and spirit, Nolan returns to his sleepy coastal hometown of Fairhope, Maine, seeking solace, obscurity... and maybe a way to forgive himself. But fate has other plans.
Because Emily Carter-the woman he left behind-is still here. And she's no longer the starry-eyed journalist-in-training he abandoned. Emily has built a quiet, meaningful life running The Story Nook, a charming local bookstore nestled between the cobblestone streets and sea-blown wind chimes. She's done everything she could to move on.
Until Nolan walks through her door.
The reunion is anything but simple. The wounds are fresh beneath the surface, their chemistry undeniable but laced with regret. And just as old feelings start to stir, a mysterious envelope arrives containing a message Nolan never expected: Kamir's death wasn't an accident. Someone wanted him silenced.
Together, Nolan and Emily are drawn into a tense and dangerous mystery-one that forces them to revisit the past they tried so hard to bury. As they uncover truths about corruption, cover-ups, and betrayal, they must also confront the personal truths they never dared to speak. Why did Nolan really leave? Can Emily ever trust him again? And is the love they lost still buried beneath all the years and pain?
Told with gripping suspense, lyrical prose, and heart-stopping emotional intimacy, The Way Back to Us is a story of rekindled love, buried secrets, and the courage it takes to choose each other again-even when the past refuses to stay quiet.
If you love second-chance romances with rich character depth, emotional intrigue, slow-burning tension, and a powerful, satisfying ending, this book will stay with you long after the final page-or final whispered word.
