The One She Loves

As the youngest of five successful siblings, Hollywood was Nico’s chance to finally prove he could make a name for himself. But when everything he’s worked for comes crashing down, he’s forced to return to Bedford—the town where he left behind a colossal mess.

Seeing Gianna on his very first day home brings every regret rushing back.

Once his first love, she’s now a painful reminder that while failure kept landing on his plate, success kept filling hers. With the two of them now working side by side at his dad’s café, burying the past—and everything it awakens—feels like his only way forward as he searches for a way back to California.

Gianna knows the past is best left alone, but her heart has never been willing to leave Nico there.

Working beside him makes it impossible to ignore that he’s become the kind of man she’s always prayed for, even though he seems adamant about leaving their history untouched. She knows she should do the same, especially when a future with him could cost her the one relationship she treasures most. The trouble is, letting go has never been easy when it comes to the only man she’s ever loved.

Can a love story scarred by the mistakes of their youth still find its happily ever after, or has the past already written the final chapter?

The One She Loves is a hope-filled second-chance Christian romance about redemption, restored faith, forgiveness, and the God who makes all things new.
