Cypress Hollow Vows
Katherine Reyes, a driven historic preservationist who fled her roots fifteen years ago after jilting her fiancé on the eve of their wedding, returns to the moss-draped cypress groves of Cypress Hollow, Georgia, haunted by the regret of a family lie that shattered her trust and sent her running to the anonymity of city life. The sagging chapel—her childhood sanctuary, where she once dreamed of forever—now bears a faded “Condemned” sign, pulling her back to confront the ghosts of abandonment and the hollow ache of what might have been.
When Katherine uncovers a legal loophole to save the chapel by proving its historical significance, she must enlist the aid of Christopher Brown, the steady-handed carpenter tasked with its demolition—and the only man who truly knows the depth of her betrayal—their forced collaboration igniting a moody tinderbox of unresolved longing and buried secrets unearthed from the chapel’s shadowed corners. With the threat of developers looming and the town’s judgmental whispers closing in, Katherine risks not just the chapel’s irreplaceable legacy but her fragile chance at redemption, forcing her to navigate the stormy waters of forgiveness, rekindled passion, and the fragile hope of anchoring her wandering heart in the sultry embrace of home.
