Story of My Life
Story Lake #1
Story of My Life (2025)
Hazel Hart is supposed to be writing her next romance novel, but heartbreak has left her stalled, isolated, and badly stuck. With her career suddenly under pressure and her publisher making it clear that another missed deadline is not an option, she does what plenty of people do when life goes sideways: she makes a drastic change. That decision takes her to Story Lake, Pennsylvania, where a crumbling house, an unfamiliar town, and a gruff contractor named Campbell Bishop push her out of the rut she has been hiding in.
Story of My Life opens a new small-town romance series, but its premise leans just as much on reinvention as it does on attraction. Hazel arrives looking for a reset and maybe a spark of inspiration, only to find herself in a place that refuses to stay quiet or orderly. Readers can expect a contemporary romance with banter, emotional bruising, and a lively small-town backdrop, built around a heroine trying to recover her footing while real life keeps getting in the way of the story she thought she was supposed to be writing.
