What We Left Behind

What We Left Behind

Maddie Hartman, Ella Hayes, and Brooke Summers were inseparable-the kind of childhood friends who promised forever. But the summer before their senior year, everything changed.

Brooke vanished without a trace.

Her disappearance shattered their friendship. Grief, unanswered questions, and the weight of the unknown pushed Maddie and Ella in opposite directions. Ella left Willow Springs for the city, determined to build a future far from the ghosts of their past. Maddie stayed behind, working in her family's hardware store, raising a son, and carrying the burden of what was left behind.

Years later, fate forces them back together when Maddie discovers something that shouldn't exist-Brooke's high school journal, hidden away in the attic. The pages hold clues, confessions, and a chilling truth that neither of them saw coming.

As long-buried secrets rise to the surface, Maddie and Ella must confront the past they tried to forget. Because the truth about Brooke's disappearance isn't just a mystery-it's a story that isn't over yet.

With romance, suspense, and small-town secrets, What We Left Behind is a gripping tale of friendship, betrayal, and second chances.
