This autumn, more than just the leaves are falling in Hazel Bay.

Anaya Patel has a secret and needs a safe place to land after leaving her ex-boyfriend in Denver. When her father decides to run for Mayor of Hazel Bay, she has the perfect excuse for an extended stay in the town where she spent countless summers. Now all she wants is to lay low and hide out.

Connor Brown is the golden boy of Hazel Bay who lives in his father’s shadow. Son of the beloved ex-mayor, Connor is experienced in politics. But Connor finds him drawn to the Patel campaign for more than just the politics, and the more that Connor works with Anaya, the more he finds that her layers run deep.

When Anaya’s past threatens her father’s chances at winning the election, Anaya has to decide if she is ready to share her story or not. Can she risk it all for the chance of true freedom, happiness, and potentially even real love?
