The Space Between Heartbeats

by Unknown Author

When Elara Voss, a grief-stricken botanist with the rare ability to feel the emotional imprints left on living things, loses her husband in a tragic accident, she retreats to the remote mountains of Asheville, North Carolina. There, she purchases a failing nursery and tries to bury herself in soil and silence. But the nursery comes with an unexpected complication — Caden Ashby, a brooding, part-Fae landscaper with eyes that shift color with his emotions, who has been quietly tending the land for years and has no intention of leaving. Two wounded souls, both carrying the kind of grief that reshapes a person, must navigate the terrifying, inconvenient, and ultimately undeniable pull drawing them together — if they can both learn that loving again isn't a betrayal of the dead, but a testament to the living.
