Even After This

Even After This follows Meredith Harper as she finally steps out from the shadow of tragedy four years after losing everything. Leaving Texas behind, she travels to Colorado Springs looking for a fresh start, a vacation, and an investment property—only for a botched dinner reservation to throw her directly into the path of Harlan Holcombe, a bona fide movie star whose recent viral heroic rescue has dubbed him a real-life Hercules. Beneath Harlan’s charming facade and terrible dance moves lies a man burdened by past mistakes he cannot undo. As their lives intertwine, Harlan helps Meredith rediscover the courage to love again, while Meredith’s presence inspires Harlan to redeem his tarnished legacy, though their healing journeys soon face a trial when their past losses collide. Readers who cherish deeply emotional stories of overcoming grief, celebrity tropes, and second chances at life will be deeply moved by this closed door romance. Set against the scenic beauty of Colorado Springs, this sweet and heartfelt novel balances lighthearted, comical moments with profound themes of redemption, healing, and the transformative power of love.
