A Soft Place to Fall by Barbara Bretton | Contemporary Romance Paperback

Sometimes the hardest part of starting over is believing that happiness is still possible.

Annie Galloway once imagined a life filled with dreams: a career in art, a peaceful marriage, and a home full of children. But when her husband died young, her hopes for the future seemed to disappear with him. Now Annie is determined to rebuild her life, one small step at a time.

She settles into a beachfront cottage in Shelter Rock Cove, Maine, hoping that the ocean air, a fresh start, and a little time will help her find herself again. Romance is the last thing on her mind—especially when it arrives in the form of her charming new neighbor.

Sam Butler has left the high-pressure world of Wall Street behind in search of a quieter, more meaningful life. He's no stranger to loss, and he recognizes the courage it takes to begin again. As Annie and Sam grow closer, they discover that healing isn't always a solitary journey—and that love can arrive when it's least expected.

A heartfelt contemporary romance about grief, resilience, second chances, small-town community, and learning to open your heart again. Perfect for readers who enjoy emotional, character-driven love stories and charming coastal settings.
