Starting over
wasn’t the plan.

Neither was falling for him.

A new town.
A familiar face.
A heart caught in between.

Sixteen-year-old Reese Andrews never wanted to move. But Willow Creek brings new friends, afternoons at the café, and a boy who makes her feel like she belongs.

Then someone from her past comes back. Torn between a familiar love and an unexpected connection, Reese must decide what she’s willing to risk.

THE PERSON BEHIND THE PAGES

Hi, I’m
Melanie.

Follow along

Canadian author Melanie Holden writes about the relationships that shape us. Willow Creek started with her daughters in mind—and became a story she needed, too.

Off the page: family, playing the drums, and Gilmore Girls with a cup of tea.

THIS ISN’T GOODBYE.

See you in
