Name: Holding You
Author: J.J. Hart

84 pages

Ava Sinclair doesn’t do roots. She does movement—new towns, new adventures, and definitely no strings. Love? Hard pass. But when her quick pit stop in Saxville turns into a summer that won’t quit, she finds herself tangled up in small-town charm, nosy neighbors, and one maddeningly steady man who kisses like he’s got all day.
Kai Hastings likes his life simple: lakehouse renovations, Friday night barbecues, and no drama. Then Ava bursts in like a beautiful tornado—wild, funny, impossible to ignore—and suddenly his quiet world looks a whole lot better with her in it.
The problem? She’s made a career out of leaving. He’s made a life out of staying.
Between lakeside sunsets, flirty banter, and a chemistry that refuses to cool down, Ava has to decide if she’s ready to stop running and let herself be caught.

Holding You is a small-town, slow-burn romance about second chances, late-night sparks, and falling for the one person who feels like home—even when home terrifies you.
