Introduction
Amelia Hart is thirty, polished, organized, and outwardly composed, but beneath her perfect-lady exterior is a woman who has spent years choosing what looks right instead of what feels right. Running from her wedding is the first impulsive thing she has ever done, and she is both horrified and secretly thrilled by it.
Noah Bennett is thirty-two, charming, observant, and impossible to rattle. He renovates old homes, knows everybody in town, and has a talent for appearing whenever Amelia is in the middle of a minor catastrophe. He seems easygoing, but he is careful with his heart and in no rush to fall in love.
June Hartley, Amelia’s matchmaking great-aunt in spirit if not in person, leaves behind a cottage, a garden full of opinionated wind chimes, and a circle of nosy friends who adopt Amelia on sight.
Waffles, Noah’s friendly escape-artist golden retriever, functions as an unlicensed couples therapist and frequently creates the exact situations Amelia and Noah would prefer to avoid.
Tessa Morales, Amelia’s best friend, is the only person who knew the wedding was a mistake. She sends supportive voice notes, chaotic advice, and increasingly absurd care packages.
I love these introductions in these books 😊👏
