Welcome to Cypress Hollow A place where love takes root and grows From bestselling author Rachael Herron comes the long-awaited story of Eliza Carpenter—a tale of love, resilience, and the search for home. It’s 1945. The war is over, soldiers are returning home, and Eliza is on the run. At least, she would be, if her truck hadn’t broken down in the middle of nowhere and her money hadn’t, quite literally, blown away. Stranded and out of options, Eliza has no choice but to accept the help of Joshua Carpenter, a cowboy with eyes as blue as the sky and a kindness she didn’t expect. Joshua is building a life for himself on a patch of farmland just outside the quiet town of Cypress Hollow. As Eliza steps into his world, she discovers that sometimes, running away is the first step toward finding where you truly belong.
