She kept control to protect her heart—until Life pushed her to finally let go.

Sutton Bradley has had enough heartbreak to last a lifetime. Now, she keeps everything in perfect order, convinced that if she loosens her grip on the threads holding her world together, everything will fall apart—including her. 

Hunter Michaels has loved Sutton for as long as he can remember. For years, he has been the one steady place she could always return to. But now he wants to be more than the one she runs to—he wants to be the one she builds a life with.

As Sutton and Hunter begin to blur the line between friendship and something more, old feelings resurface, along with years of what-ifs and almosts they can’t ignore anymore.

But love requires more than history. It requires trust. And letting go may be the only way forward.

Will Sutton risk everything for the one person who has always felt like home, or will fear keep her holding on until she loses him for good? 

Now and Then is a small-town romance about redesigning your life, letting go, and realizing some loves were always worth the wait.

Now and Then is book two in The Blue Collar Boys Series. While it can be read as a standalone, the fully emotional journey begins with Until Then.
