The Edge of Maybe

About the book

Sometimes staying can be the biggest risk.

Ivy Chandler is a dreamer, an optimist, and the proud new owner of her aunt's cherished bookstore - a place filled with memories, opportunity, and the familiar smell of old books. She is determined to create something special in the quaint town of Harbor Hill, but deep down she has a hidden fear: every new beginning ultimately leads to an end, and she has become all too accustomed to farewells.

Theo Reyes is an artist shrouded in silence, protected by the barriers he has meticulously constructed around his heart. He is used to being alone, until his tranquil life is disrupted by his lively, talkative new neighbor. Ivy embodies everything that Theo is not - vibrant in the midst of his darkness, bold in his caution, and open in his reserve. However, there is something about her gentle vulnerability that captivates him, igniting a desire for connection that he thought he had sworn off for good.

As an unexpected bond begins to evolve into something more profound, Ivy and Theo must confront their own fears. Choosing to be with each other means risking heartache, but it also signifies summoning the courage to remain despite the uncertainty. In a world where promises are fleeting, can they rely on the quiet assurance of their hearts, or will they allow fear to push them back to the safety of uncertainty?
