Great and Precious Things — Ребекка Яррос

CAMDEN

I came home because my father needed me. Not because he wanted me back.

Six years ago, I left my hometown carrying the blame for my brother’s death. The people here never forgave me. Neither did my father. And honestly? I’m not sure I ever forgave myself.

Now he’s battling Alzheimer’s, my family is falling apart, and every road in this town leads back to the past I’ve spent years trying to outrun.

And to Willow Bradley.

My childhood best friend. The woman I’ve always loved. The one person I need to stay away from.

Because loving her is the one thing that could ruin us both.

WILLOW

Camden Daniels was the boy I was never supposed to love.

He was my best friend, my almost, my what-if. Then he left, and all our town remembered was the tragedy he carried with him.

But now Cam is back, and I can see what everyone else refuses to. He isn’t the monster everyone made him out to be. He’s wounded, stubborn, and still trying to protect everyone but himself.

Choosing him means risking my family, my reputation, and the fragile peace I’ve built without him. But walking away might mean losing the only man who has ever felt like home.

But this time, the truth might not set us free. It might destroy us completely.
