The New Year's Party

Eight friends. One holiday. A party that will change their lives forever.

Every New Year’s Eve, Karl and Nicole host the same group of college friends to ring in another year together. It’s a tradition filled with champagne, laughter, and memories.

Until the night everything changes.

When Karl’s brother Mike dies in a head-on collision on his way to the party, the group is shattered. In the aftermath, they make a pact: no matter where life takes them, they’ll reunite every New Year’s Eve to honor his memory.

Amanda Reynolds never imagined that getting into Mike’s car that night would cost her everything. The crash leaves her barely alive—and when she wakes in the hospital, the man she loved is gone.

The only person there is Evan.

He isn’t her boyfriend.

He isn’t her family.

He’s just the stranger who refused to leave her side during the longest night of their lives.

What begins as two people bound by grief slowly becomes something neither of them planned. But can a love born from tragedy survive the years, the distance, and the people they meet along the way?

The New Year's Party is a deeply emotional women's fiction novel about healing, friendship, and the love that grows when you least expect it.
