Wine isn’t the only thing aging in Stone Bridge—secrets are, too.
After nearly two decades chasing adventure across the globe, Riley Callahan never expected to return to Stone Bridge, California. But when her father dies under suspicious circumstances, she has no choice but to face the ghosts of her past—both the family she left behind and the man who broke her heart.
Her homecoming is anything but welcoming. Tension with her siblings runs high, old wounds refuse to heal, and the town she once longed to escape still holds its secrets close. None more so than Bryson Boone, the boy she once loved who is now the successful owner of Stone Bridge Winery. He’s built a life rooted deep in the land she abandoned—one that’s now tangled in the mystery of her father’s death.
As Riley searches for answers, she unearths long-buried truths about her family and the town itself, uncovering a past darker than she ever imagined. And the more she digs, the clearer it becomes—someone doesn’t want her to find the truth.
With danger closing in and old passions reigniting, Riley must decide if she’s still the girl who runs… or if it’s finally time to stand her ground, fight for the truth, and maybe even risk her heart.
