Spruce Harbor - Beginnings

A Novella and the prequel to the Spruce Harbor Series
Their second chance at first love
 Four years ago, high school sweethearts Alicia and Charlie thought their love would last forever. But when Charlie's dreams took him far from their sleepy coastal town, their young romance was left drifting on the tides of change.
Now, fate has brought them back to where their story began. But have too many years passed for a second chance? In Spruce Harbor Beginnings, high school sweethearts will discover if first love can be rekindled, or if their separate journeys have sailed them too far past the shores of what once was.
A chance encounter awakens long-buried sparks between Alicia and Charlie. But as they tentatively rebuild the intimacy of their past, uncertainties abound. Has Alicia found her purpose in her art in Paris, pulling her forever from Charlie's reach? And can Charlie confront the personal demons driving him to flee, rather than run from his fears again?
In this charming tale of homecoming, first love, and new beginnings, two young souls must decide if the past still holds a place in their futures. With secrets from years past threatening their reconnection, will Alicia and Charlie withstand the forces that once tore them apart? Or will they embrace what draws them together and risk their hearts one last time?
Discover their story of hope rekindled in Spruce Harbor Beginnings, where fate offers one final chance to rediscover first love.
