He’s the steady bar owner who’s never loved anyone but her. She’s the brilliant lawyer too scared to fall.
From the outside, Lilly Harrison has it all — a successful career, a beautiful home, and money in the bank. But her heart is lonely.
Every lunch break, she escapes to the warm buzz of Elijah Geary’s bar… and the man she secretly dreams about.
Elijah has built a quiet life in Edinburgh after the military — a bar he loves, friends he trusts, and one woman who owns his heart. He’s never played the field, never wanted anyone else.
For him, Lilly is everything.
But wanting and having are two very different things. She’s afraid of change. He’s afraid of losing her if he pushes too hard.
Sometimes the bravest thing isn’t jumping… it’s taking someone’s hand when they reach out.
A tender, steamy slow-burn romance about finding home in a person — and fighting for the love you deserve.
Perfect for fans of small-town settings, loyal heroes, and soft heat with heart-melting emotion.
