Finding Home at Briar

After her life in London falls apart, twenty-one-year-old figure skater Isla Whitmore transfers to Briar University with her four-month-old son, Oliver, determined to start over on her own.

Between returning to competitive skating, balancing classes and motherhood, and living across the street from Briar's notoriously chaotic hockey house, Isla expects her new life to be exhausting-not comforting. But before long, Hannah, Allie, Garrett, Dean, Logan, Beau, and especially John Tucker begin to feel less like neighbors and more like the family she never knew she needed.

And as Tucker quietly becomes the person who shows up for both Isla and Ollie, Isla has to decide whether she can trust love again-or if Briar is only meant to be another temporary stop.

A wholesome slow-burn story about heartbreak, motherhood, second chances, found family, and finally finding home.
