The Recipe for Forgiveness: Stirring Up Love in Maple Hill

Emily Wright told herself it was just a quick visit. A few weeks in Maple Hill to help her mom pull off the town’s Thanksgiving banquet then back to the city, far from the ghosts she left behind. But her mother has other ideas. Somehow, Emily ends up partnered with Nate Harper, the hometown baker she once swore she’d never speak to again.

Back in high school, Nate’s careless prank turned her into a joke and sent her running. He’s spent the years since trying to make amends in quiet ways serving pies, helping neighbors, building a simple, steady life. Everyone in Maple Hill seems to adore him. Everyone but Emily.

Now they’re shoulder to shoulder in the kitchen, trading barbs over mixing bowls and finding unexpected laughter between late-night batches of dough. The smell of cinnamon and caramel lingers in the air, softening something she thought was gone for good.

But forgiveness isn’t simple. And love, like any recipe worth keeping, takes time.

When the last pie cools and the lights dim, will Emily stay to taste what they’ve made or walk away before it’s done rising?

Set against this spirit of homecoming and gratitude, this book tells one unforgettable story of love rediscovered when the heart finally finds its way back home.

Welcome to Home for Thanksgiving, a tender clean romance series about love, forgiveness, and the quiet joy of coming home. Each story follows someone returning to familiar streets and faces some to make peace with the past, others to rediscover the love they never truly lost.

Amid the scent of pumpkin pie and the flicker of candlelight, hearts open in unexpected ways. Old friendships find warmth again, families learn to listen, and hope settles softly like falling leaves.

Gentle, heartfelt, and full of gratitude, these stories remind us that the truest home isn’t a place it’s the people waiting for you at the door.
