Somewhere, Always
When Will loses his wife in a sudden accident, the world he knew disappears in an instant. Left alone with his young daughter, Sophia, he learns how to survive on autopilot. Make breakfast. Get through the day. Try not to think about the empty space at the table or the woman who will never come back through the door. The future feels like something that belongs to other people.
Across the ocean, Jennifer is finally doing what she has been afraid to do for years. She is leaving a relationship built on control and fear, taking her daughter Emily, and chasing one last chance at a career that might give them both a safer, better life. But freedom is messy. Starting over is frightening. And the past does not let go quietly.
Their lives intersect at Hillside, a small, weather-beaten bed and breakfast on the Isle of Wight. It is supposed to be temporary. Just a stop. Just somewhere to breathe.
Instead, it becomes the place where two broken families begin, slowly and carefully, to rebuild.
As guarded friendships turn into something deeper, Will and Jennifer find themselves facing the same terrifying question from opposite sides of loss. Is it possible to love again without betraying what came before. And is it worth the risk when everything you still care about could be taken from you again.
But healing is never simple. And some wounds, and some people, refuse to stay in the past.
Somewhere, Always is a deeply moving novel about grief, second chances, single parenthood, and the quiet courage it takes to believe in happiness again. It is a story about chosen family, new beginnings, and the places that become home not because they are perfect, but because we are finally brave enough to stay.
Warm, honest, and emotionally unforgettable, this is the first novel in The Hillside Stories. A series about rebuilding after life falls apart, and finding hope where you least expect it.
