Review

A cute, cozy fall romance with a couple of men over 40 who deserve a second chance at love. And all the candy they can eat.

Chip has been a shell of himself since his husband passed away. But Lincoln and his sweet children bring him back to life, and in turn, give them the love they deserve.

Lincoln works his butt off to take care of his family and the shop, but he’s been missing someone to care for and be there for him.

It’s a very lovely little story.

Synopsis

In the heart of a picturesque small town, two lonely souls find that love might be the scariest—and most magical—thing of all.

Windhaven, New York, is the epitome of autumn charm, where crisp leaves blanket slate sidewalks and cozy sweaters become a necessity. But behind the quaint facades of this small town, two men are haunted by ghosts of their past.

Lincoln Townsend, a devoted single father and owner of the local grocery store, has always been the pillar of strength for his young children. As autumn descends on Windhaven, he finds himself irresistibly drawn to his reclusive neighbor, Charles "Chip" Donahugh, the town's enigmatic doctor. Despite his own bustling life, Lincoln is curious about the man who keeps to the shadows and is determined to bridge the gap between them.

Chip, a widower still grieving the loss of his late husband, lives a life shrouded in solitude. The pain of his past is a constant companion, making him wary of opening his heart again. When Lincoln's persistent kindness starts to crack through his defenses, Chip is torn between the safety of his isolation and the possibility of a future filled with love.

As the golden hues of October settle over Windhaven, Lincoln and Chip are forced to confront their fears and doubts. In a town where autumn magic is palpable and every corner hides a story, they must learn to let go of the past and embrace a future they never imagined possible. Through cozy autumn nights and the warmth of budding romance, they discover that sometimes, the scariest risks lead to the most extraordinary rewards.

In this heartwarming tale of love and new beginnings, discover how two wounded hearts can heal each other under the spell of autumn's embrace.
