Hazel

Hazel Whitcomb came back to Briar Glen to sell her mother's house and be gone before the leaves fell. Then the kitchen drawer fell apart and she met Theo Nash, who runs the hardware store downstairs, raises his daughter alone and finds her the right screws before she asks. His daughter Wren is seven, convinced Hazel is a witch and committed to proving it with pumpkins. Hazel does not want to be anybody's anything. She wants to fix one drawer, attend one bake sale, teach one kid the difference between maple and oak. Twelve years of leaving are hard to undo. But when the buyer pulls out, and the house is still hers, and the town is still warm, Hazel has to decide whether staying was always the plan. A cozy fall romance about coming home to a place you swore you wouldn't.
