Some love stories never fade. They wait to be found.

When journalist Lily Malone discovers a garnet ring tucked inside a velvet box in a seaside antique shop, she doesn't expect it to unravel a decades-old mystery. Hidden alongside it is a letter—faded, undated, and pulsing with heartbreak—and a photograph of a woman whose name was never recorded. Compelled by a feeling she can't shake, Lily follows the trail of Grace, a young nurse lost in the final days of the Vietnam War, and the man who loved her in silence for a lifetime. Her search leads to Rock Hills, Nevada, and to Evan St. Clair, Grace's nephew, whose quiet grief has lived unnamed—until now. Together, they uncover a legacy of devotion, loss, and the enduring power of remembrance.

Borrowed Time is a tender and unforgettable story of love interrupted, truth rediscovered, and the kind of legacy that lingers long after the last goodbye.
