The Long Way Back to You: A small-town Alaska romance of forgiveness, found family, and the long road home (Welcome to Redemption, Alaska Book 2)

Engaged to the right kind of man. Coming home to the only one who ever knew her. And a family secret that's about to make the choice for her.Emma Carlisle built the life she was supposed to want. The career in Boston. The surgeon fiancé. The carefully curated future that has nothing to do with the small Alaska town she fled fifteen years ago, or the family shame that drove her out, or the boy whose heart she broke on her way to becoming someone else.When unpaid property taxes drag her back to Redemption, she has a plan: sell her mother's house, settle the debt, and disappear again before her past can do any more damage. She does not have a plan for Luke McGuire.Luke never moved on. He stayed in Redemption, fighting to save his family's failing resort and the legacy that means everything to him — and pretending the woman who walked away without a word didn't take half his heart with her. Now she's standing in his town again, wearing another man's ring, and acting like she still has the right to undo him with one look.She does. She always did.But Redemption is hiding more than Emma's engagement is willing to forgive. The truth about why her family left. The reason her mother kept the house all these years. The version of herself she buried in Boston so she could survive being someone else's idea of perfect.When the secrets finally surface, Emma will have to choose — between the safe life she built to outrun her past, and the messy, bone-deep truth of where her heart has always belonged.Loving Luke would mean tearing down everything she's built. Walking away again would mean losing whatever's left of who she really is.The Long Way Back to You is a small-town Christian romance featuring:A second-chance romance with first love and fifteen years of unfinished businessA heroine engaged to the wrong man and slowly remembering whyA small-town hero who never stopped loving the woman who walked awayA failing family resort and a legacy worth fighting forThe breathtaking pull of coastal Alaska and the home you can't quite outrunA faith journey of forgiveness, courage, and choosing the life you were meant forPerfect for readers who love Becky Wade, Denise Hunter, Robin Lee Hatcher, Pepper Basham, and anyone who's ever wondered if the long way home is the only way that counts.Welcome to Redemption, AlaskaBook 1: The Other Side of GoodbyeBook 2: The Long Way Back to YouBook 3: The Last Mile Between UsBook 4: The Echo of Your HeartBook 5: The Hidden Light of Her Read more
