About this audiobook
Her kids moved out.
Her house got quiet.
Then her first love showed up with a toolbox.
Natalie was not looking for romance, especially not with Michael, the man she never truly forgot. But when he comes back into her small town, old sparks turn into late nights, stolen touches, and feelings she is not sure she is ready to face.
She thought this chapter would be about learning to live alone.
Instead, it is about laughter, longing, and a chemistry that never really cooled off.
Now Natalie has to decide if protecting her heart matters more than opening it again.
What Grows After Goodbye is a funny, sexy, heartfelt small-town second-chance romantic comedy about starting over, letting go, and discovering that some loves are worth the risk.
