Old ghosts. Hidden truths. And choices that could change everything.

Annie Flynn thought she had left her past-and the men who complicated it-behind. She was wrong.

This Christmas, Mace Harlen, Chuck, and Leo return to her life, and with them come buried secrets, dangerous lies, and the unresolved tensions that have always lurked just beneath the surface.

As old wounds reopen and hidden truths collide with the present, Annie must navigate loyalty, trust, and the complicated pull of three very different men. With lives at stake and love hanging in the balance, she has to decide who to trust-and who might betray her.

Where the Road Bends is Book 2 in The Penumbra Series, a Texas-set romantic suspense series featuring:

• a gripping love triangle (or square) that keeps hearts and loyalties in flux
• slow-burn, fade-to-black romance
• small-town secrets and dangerous pasts
• themes of faith, redemption, and hard choices

Perfect for fans of Colleen Coble, Denise Hunter, and Nora Roberts' romantic suspense.
