In a town where whispers travel faster than the wind, can love find its way through the storm?

When Luke McAllister arrives in the small frontier town of Sage, California, he’s determined to build a school and leave the shadows of his past behind. But life out West is never simple—especially when two very different women capture his heart.

Rose Harper is as practical as she is determined. With her fiery red hair and quiet strength, she’s the woman who could offer Luke a home and a future filled with warmth and stability. But beneath her prim exterior lies a yearning to be seen as more than the proper schoolteacher she’s trying to become.

Then there’s Willow, the striking, raven-haired saloon beauty whose bold confidence and sultry allure are impossible to ignore. Haunted by her own past, she sees in Luke a man who could save her—or ruin her—and she’s not afraid to fight for his attention.

As tensions rise and passions ignite, Luke finds himself torn between the steadfast loyalty of Rose and the undeniable spark of Willow. But in a town full of wagging tongues and judgmental stares, every choice comes with a cost.

Welcome to Sage is a sweeping tale of forbidden love, second chances, and the tender promise of a forever home in a land as untamed as the hearts that beat within it. Perfect for fans of Kristin Hannah and Linda Lael Miller, this is a story of love, longing, and the courage to follow your heart.

Who will win Luke’s heart? And will the whispers of Sage let love survive?
