May Your Journey Always Lead You Home

Two strangers, Brad and Anika, skip North Carolina for two completely different reasons

Brad Underill, a highly-successful gardening expert and famous author, is eager to flee rabid fans, fame, and fortune. He longs to get back to basics—and misses the life he enjoyed before his literary success took over. When Covid-19 struck, Anika Longwood not only lost her blogging and editing job she loved, but her constant companion, too.

Carol Bartowan, ex-New Yorker, proud owner of Viera Key Cottages down on Florida’s gorgeous North Key Largo has just finished renovating the run-down compound. Carol is eager to welcome guests into her paradise found!

When Brad and Anika fortuitously meet at Viera Key Cottages, Carol Bartowan has other plans for Brad, besides being just her gardener! When Carol is rebuffed by Brad, she discovers his true identity and is biding her time to “tell all.”

However, a relationship-reluctant Brad finds himself falling hard for Anika, despite his effort to be anonymous and single. Anika discovers she has feelings for Brad but is finding it hard to trust herself, after her last relationship-fiasco.

Will Brad confess his true identity to Anika?

Has Anika enough resolve to give love another try?
