Overview

She walks alone. That's how she rebuilt herself-and how she intends to finish. After leaving Damascus without a goodbye, Claire moves north on the Appalachian Trail with the efficiency she's perfected: early starts, long miles, no attachments. The trail rewards discipline, and Claire knows how to disappear into routine. Forward motion is clean. Silence is safe. Needing no one has always been her strength. Then Graham keeps showing up. The same shelters. The same water sources. The same steady pace, mile after mile. He doesn't push. He doesn't ask. He doesn't try to fix anything. He simply walks-present, capable, and quietly aware in a way that unsettles Claire more than overt attention ever could. As rain, heat, and distance test her resolve, Claire is forced to confront a harder truth than exhaustion: solitude may protect her, but it also limits her. And proximity-unremarkable, practical, unavoidable-has a way of revealing what she's been refusing to name. The Miles We Carry Forward is a slow-burn, emotionally grounded romance set on the Appalachian Trail, where connection is earned through shared routines, restraint, and the daily choice to keep walking in the same direction. No dramatic rescues. No grand declarations. Just two adults learning that autonomy and intimacy don't have to cancel each other out. Perfect for readers who love: - Slow-burn romance with depth - Trail-authentic Appalachian Trail settings - Mature characters and emotional realism - Low-heat, high-intimacy love stories - Stories where restraint is strength-and choosing someone is an act of courage Each book in the Trail of Hearts series stands alone, following a different woman's journey north-mile by mile, choice by choice. The trail keeps moving. So does the heart.
