Mallory On The Edge

Mallory Mason has been saying no to things for thirteen years. No to moving on. No to risking her heart. No to the very cute baker who brings her pastries every single morning. But when the pastries stop, and Conor goes silent, she tells herself she's fine.

She is not fine. She tracks him down, finds him sick and stubborn and trying not to need anyone. On top of that, her late husband's sister shows up out of the blue, and Mallory suddenly has a weekend of handling it all.

Lila Greer is running out of time. Ethan leaves for Raleigh in two weeks. Her brain has made its peace with that, but she's not sure her heart has.

Grace Tanner is painting the walls of a cottage she swore she'd sell, in a town she swore she'd leave, next to a man she swore she was only friends with. She lied about all three.

In Tranquil Bay, the hardest conversations happen over tequila, and the people who show up without being asked are the ones who matter most.
