Downloading Sunshine in the Storm

Lila Bennett is the heart of Maplewood—a cheerful, outgoing event planner who lights up every room she walks into. Known for her boundless optimism and ability to turn even the simplest occasion into something magical, she’s fully invested in her small-town life. But after a painful breakup, Lila isn’t sure she’ll ever trust her heart again. That is, until she crosses paths with the town’s resident recluse.

Wren Carter has always preferred the quiet solitude of her art studio to the bustle of the outside world. A talented yet withdrawn artist, she’s happiest with a paintbrush in hand and the door firmly closed to anything that resembles a social life. Her grumpy exterior hides a heart that’s been hurt one too many times—and she has no intention of letting anyone break through her defences again. But when the town’s Harvest Festival forces Wren and Lila to work together, sparks start to fly in ways neither of them expected.

Sunshine in the Storm is a heartwarming, small-town romance featuring a grumpy artist, a hopeful planner, and a slow-burn connection that contains no spice—just pure emotional depth.
