The Love We Chose Next Door

Nine years after running for her life, Andie has rebuilt what was taken from her, but she still refuses to put down roots that could endanger anyone who gets too close.

That careful distance starts to slip when Cooper, a sheriff, moves in next door with his teenage son and draws her into shared meals and an unexpected place in their lives.

Cooper returned to Swift Rivers to help his father recover and give his son a fresh start, not to fall for the guarded neighbor hiding something behind her cautious smiles.

Andie begins to want the home and family she once swore were not meant for her, even as she fears the truth of who she is will give Cooper every reason to walk away.

When the danger she escaped reaches Swift Rivers, protecting her matters more to him than the secrets she has carried alone.

As the truth comes to light, they must decide whether their scars will drive them apart or finally lead them to choose love and stay.
