The Contractor's Promise is a heartwarming, clean, second-chance romance novella featuring a small-town setting, a renovation project, and a guaranteed Happily Ever After. She came back to sell the house. She didn't plan on falling for the contractor who broke her heart. Maya Lin has a plan: return to her small hometown of Cedar Creek, renovate her grandmother's crumbling inn, sell it to the highest bidder, and get back to her life in Chicago. The timeline is three months. No distractions. No feelings. There's just one problem. The only licensed contractor in town is Liam Harper—the boy who promised to follow her to the city ten years ago, only to ghost her on graduation night. Liam is no longer the lanky teenager she loved. He's broad-shouldered, rugged, and infuriatingly convinced that Maya is making a mistake selling the family legacy. Stuck working side-by-side in the dust and debris of The Willow Inn, the old anger between them quickly turns into a different kind of heat. When a wealthy developer offers Maya a golden ticket out of town, she thinks her escape is finally ready. But a discovery hidden within the walls of the old house reveals that Liam has been keeping secrets for years—secrets that change everything. Will Maya take the money and run? Or will she realize that the only thing that needs fixing isn't the house... but her heart?
