Maggie Carter never thought she'd come home again. But when her life unravels after a quiet divorce, she finds herself driving back to Willow Creek, the seaside town she once fled and the memories she tried to forget.

Bennett's Books and Brew still smells of coffee and old paper, and Jack Bennett—her first love and the one she left behind—is still there behind the counter, smiling like no time has passed. What begins as a summer of rest becomes something deeper, as Maggie rediscovers her roots, her voice, and the courage to believe in second chances.

But when Jack's ambitious brother returns with plans to turn the beloved bookshop into a corporate café, Maggie and Jack must fight to protect the place that means everything to them. And as the summer deepens, Maggie realises that sometimes coming home is not about what you left behind, but about finding who you were always meant to be.

Summer at Willow Creek is a tender story about love rediscovered, the beauty of small towns, and the quiet magic of beginnings that feel like coming home.
