Overview

When librarian Clary Bennett agrees to be Josh Whitaker's last-minute plus-one to a family wedding, she tells herself it's nothing more than a favor. A weekend away. A harmless pretend date. But from the moment they step into the lakeside inn-lanterns glowing, families laughing, secrets humming beneath the surface-something between them shifts. Josh has always been the steady one: dependable, thoughtful, rooted in the rhythms of Plainville. But Clary sees the pieces he keeps hidden-the quiet longing, the careful distance, the way he watches her like she's a story he's afraid to start. And when a moonlit walk ends in a kiss that feels like a beginning, neither of them can pretend anymore. Back home, the library feels the same... and entirely different. Their easy friendship deepens into something tender and electric, full of charged silences, accidental touches, and the kind of trust that sneaks up on you. But when Clary receives an unexpected invitation from a Boston publisher, she's forced to confront the truth she's been avoiding: Some dreams pull you forward. Some roots hold you steady. And some choices change everything. As winter settles over Plainville, Clary and Josh must decide whether what they've found is a fleeting moment... or the start of a life built together.
