Coming Home to Harbor's End

At twenty-one, Jo Rowan told the boy she loved to go to sea and not to write. He went. He didn't write. Forty-two years later he's standing at the back of the room at Harbor's End, and he wants to explain.

Jo spent thirty-eight years as a high-school guidance counselor, helping teenagers make the hardest choices of their lives. She's retired now, living happily on her own up the coast in Rockland, with a three-month trip to Lisbon finally booked. She has never told anyone that the biggest decision she ever made was someone else's.

Gil Hadley has come home to Bellwether Cove after forty-two years at sea, two weeks too late to see his mother. Clearing her house, he finds a kitchen calendar with Jo's initial on the first Tuesday of every month for forty years, and a shoebox of letters he wrote and never mailed.

This time he isn't going to do what he's told. And this time, Jo will have to do the one thing she has never done: ask him what he wants, and wait for the answer.

Coming Home to Harbor's End is a clean, closed-door, later-in-life second-chance romance about first love, unsent letters and the courage to choose again. Book 3 of the Harbor's End Romances; a complete standalone with a happily ever after.
