A heartwarming, closed-door second-chance romance—set in the cozy town of Maple Ridge.

Six months. That’s all Eva Hart needs to keep her great-uncle’s café running before she can sell it and return to her fast-paced life in New Orleans. But small towns have a way of tugging at loose threads—and one of them wears a deputy’s badge and still remembers how she takes her coffee.

Noah Reed never forgot the girl who left Maple Ridge—or how it felt when she did. Now she’s back, determined to leave again, and he’s the last person she expects to lean on as the café, the festivals, and a certain orange cat pull her deeper into town life.

As autumn turns to winter, Eva’s six-month plan starts to unravel, and old feelings brew stronger than the espresso. But can a girl who ran from small-town roots find her future where it all began?

The Bookshop on Maple Street is a clean, cozy, small-town romance from Briar Skye, filled with cinnamon, second chances, and the quiet courage it takes to choose home—and love—again..
