Headed North

Dr. Kylo Ren never planned on Tower Lake, Minnesota. After years of burnout and a breakup that felt like a divorce, the once-brilliant Chicago obstetrician heads north in search of quiet-a place where the air is clean, the hospital hallways slow down, and no one knows his name.

What he finds instead is Miss Sadie Pike.

One of the youngest LDRP charge nurses the hospital has ever seen, Sadie is the Northwoods' sweetheart, fearless in an emergency, tender with her patients, and woven into the very soil her family helped build generations ago. She's all Minnesota charm and sharp brilliance, a woman raised on blistering winters, lake summers, and the unspoken rule that Pikes take care of their own.

Kylo's world has always been fast, clinical, and lonely. Sadie's is warm, loud, rooted, and fiercely loyal. He comes from skyscrapers and traffic; she comes from pine forests, muddy boots, and Saturday-night bonfires on Tower Lake.

Neither of them expects the pull between them.

But the longer Kylo stays, the more Tower Lake begins to feel like something dangerously close to home, especially with Sadie guiding him through small-town traditions, the protective chaos of her brothers, and long drives beneath Minnesota stars. And as her steady presence begins stitching together the pieces of the man he thought he'd lost, Kylo realizes he isn't just healing.

He's falling.

This is a Northwoods love story about second chances, deep roots, and the quiet but undeniable gravity of finding the one person who feels like both safety and wildfire.
A big-city doctor. A small-town sweetheart. And a Minnesota romance neither of them ever saw coming.
