Some places hold more than our past.

They hold the future we never imagined.

Gracie Buchanan, a florist in Edinburgh, has never truly left the Highland village she grew up in. Her mother's death still lingers heavy on her heart. But when she's asked to assist with an archival project alongside Fletcher McCullough-a guarded historian shaped by a childhood he rarely speaks of-Gracie finds herself drawn into a deeper reckoning.

Their research unearths more than forgotten family legacies; it stirs questions of belonging, emotional inheritance, and the kind of connection that doesn't fade with time or distance. Gracie must decide whether to stay rooted in the life she's built or return to the place that still feels like home. Fletcher, long accustomed to cataloging the past and keeping the present at arm's length, must choose whether to step into the light Gracie offers-or remain in the shadows that have

always felt safer.
