My Work in Progress

She swore she’d never come back. He swore he’d never forgive her.

When Isla Winters left Timberline, she was chasing a dream—New York City, center stage, a life as a ballet dancer she’d spent years building. But when an injury forces her to walk away from the only future she ever imagined, she finds herself back in the one place she never thought she’d return to. The quiet Wyoming town still holds its charm… but it also holds Cole Archer—the first love she left behind.

Cole has spent years trying to keep his family’s ranch afloat, and he doesn’t have time for distractions—especially not Isla, the woman who once shattered his heart. But when she throws herself into saving the ranch’s future, bringing wild ideas and an undeniable spark, old feelings resurface.

Isla never planned to stay. Cole never planned to want her to. But some things—like love, like home—are impossible to outrun.

Can they rebuild what was lost, or will the past prove too much to overcome?

A heartfelt, slow-burn cowboy romance about second chances, small-town charm, and the love that was never meant to be left behind. Fans of Elsie Silver, Lyla Sage, and Christina Lauren will fall hard for Stay This Time.
