Heartwood - Paperback

by Emma Hartley (Author)

Blake Anderson thought he had his life together. When his father dies, Blake's troubled past catches up with him. Selling his father's dilapidated cabin becomes Blake's only priority, but the place is bursting with painful memories.

Alex Taylor, the restoration contractor Blake hires to do the work, immediately recognizes the camp's potential, but she's not so sure about the reticent Blake. Beneath her feisty façade, however, Alex is hiding a secret of her own.

Together, Blake and Alex restore the cabin to its original beauty, piece by piece. As they unearth secrets of the past, they stumble upon a tapestry of corruption and crime spanning decades. Compelled to find the truth, Blake and Alex must confront their inner demons, as well as some real-life criminals, as they struggle to overcome their pasts and learn to love again.
