Renee thought the past was finally behind her. Four years after losing her abusive husband, she’s worked hard to build a quiet life for her and her two children. Safe. Simple. Maybe a little lonely—but hers.
Then one unexpected phone call changes everything. Her late husband’s lawyer reveals a secret kept hidden for years—a stunning country estate tucked away in rural Oklahoma and a three-million-dollar inheritance waiting.

Faced with a choice she never saw coming, Renee packs up her life for a fresh start in a small town surrounded by open land, big skies, and possibilities she hadn’t dared to imagine.

What she doesn’t expect? The two men who start to matter more than she ever planned—the steady, thoughtful lawyer who’s been by her side through it all, and the rugged, kind-hearted neighbor who makes her feel something she hasn’t in a long time...hope.

In a small town, secrets don't stay hidden, trying to juggle the two relationships, Renee must decide—can she let go of the past and open her heart to something real? Or will fear and the inability to choose keep her from the future she deserves?

A heartwarming, emotional story of second chances, healing, and finding unexpected love where the road leads you home.
