You Were Always The One

Lilith Edenfield has spent the last decade carefully guarding her heart-burying old dreams, avoiding what-ifs, and pretending she's not still haunted by the boy who left without looking back.Elias Carter was her best friend, her safe place, the one person who always saw through the walls she built. But he left Whispering Pines when she was fifteen, and he took a piece of her with him. Now, ten years later, he's back-older, quieter, and just as heartbreakingly familiar.His return forces Lilith to confront everything she never said, everything she still feels, and everything she's terrified to want. Because falling for Elias again means risking the carefully built life she's created in his absence.In a town full of memories, where the leaves are changing and nothing feels quite the same, Lilith has to decide: Is it too late for a second chance... or was he always the one?
