Ten years ago, Sophie Brennan watched the love of her life leave their small coastal town of Seahaven, Maine, chasing dreams too big for their hometown to contain. Cole Harrison wanted to see the world through his camera lens, and Sophie wanted him to stay. When he chose adventure over her, she built a life without him?a cozy bookstore, deep community roots, and a heart she thought had finally healed.Now Cole is back, standing in her doorway with rain-soaked hair and a grief-stricken heart after his father's sudden death. He's older, wiser, and carrying ten years of award-winning photographs from every corner of the globe. But none of those images captured what he'd been searching for all along.As autumn settles over Seahaven, Sophie and Cole are drawn back together, circling each other like planets in an inevitable orbit. Cole has spent a decade documenting other people's homes, other people's lives, while Sophie has built something real and beautiful right where they started. Between coffee at The Book Nook and sunset walks on the pier, old feelings resurface with startling intensity.But falling in love again isn't simple when you've already had your heart broken once. Sophie refuses to be the reason Cole abandons his dreams, and Cole can't promise he won't leave again. They're still the same people they were ten years ago?one who needs roots, one who craves wings. Or are they?When Cole's photography exhibition reveals the truth he's been hiding?that Sophie has been the ghost in every frame, the home he's been seeking in every foreign sunset?they're forced to confront an impossible question: Can you build a life with someone whose dreams require them to leave?WHERE YOU ARE is a heartfelt second-chance romance about finding the courage to love again, learning that home isn't a place you're trapped but a choice you make, and discovering that sometimes the greatest adventure is staying exactly where you are.Perfect for fans of emotional contemporary romance, small-town settings, and stories that prove some loves are worth the risk.
