Welcome to Honey Ridge, Tennessee, where New York Times bestselling author Linda Goodnight invites you to a house rich with secrets and brimming with sweet possibilities 

Memories of motherhood and marriage are still fresh for Julia Presley—though tragedy took away both years ago. Finding comfort running the Peach Orchard Inn, she lets the historic place fill the voids of love and family. Life is calm…until a stranger with a young boy shows up and disrupts the loneliness of her world. Julia suspects there's more to Eli Donovan than his motherless son, Alex. Offering the guarded man work, she glimpses someone who—like her—has a heart in need of restoration. But with the chance discovery of a stack of dusty love letters found in the lining of an old trunk, a Civil War romance envelops Julia and Eli, challenging them to risk facing yesterday's ghosts for a future bright with hope and healing.
