THE TREE WHERE LOVE BEGAN: a novel

Ten years ago, Clara Ashworth made a promise under the Sentinel Oak—and

broke it, or so Nathaniel Hale has always believed. Now her grandmother’s will

has brought her home to Millbrook Hollow with a strange condition: clear the old

tree’s hollow before the land can be sold. What she finds there isn’t just her own

unfinished past, but her grandmother’s—a love letter, a family rift, and a truth

neither Clara nor Nathaniel is ready for. With a closing deadline and a decade of

silence between them, Clara has to decide whether coming home means leaving

again, or finally staying long enough to find out what really happened under the

tree where love began.
