She left Sweet Tea to chase a dream. He stayed—and never forgot what it cost him.
Rising country star Sutter Knight comes home to Sweet Tea, Tennessee, expecting a quiet break from the spotlight. Instead, she finds the historic Sweet Tea Theater—the stage where she first found her voice—marked for demolition.
She’ll do whatever it takes to save the place that shaped her, even if it means facing Dawson Yates, the high school sweetheart she left behind when her dreams carried her away.
Dawson has worked too hard to rebuild his family’s tarnished name and earn the project of a lifetime. Restoring Sweet Tea’s future means replacing its aging theater with something new. But Sutter sees more than crumbling walls. She sees the memories, music, and hometown she never meant to lose.
Working against each other reignites the sparks neither of them has forgotten—and the hurt neither has healed. Can Sutter and Dawson find a way to save the theater that brought them together…without losing their second chance at love?
