Angie Tompkins returns with a free short romance for the beginning of October. This visit to Harbor’s Hope starts with an old photograph and a plan that needs a little adjusting.
By Angie Tompkins
Natalie Bell has one weekend to recreate her grandparents’ honeymoon photograph for their sixtieth anniversary. She has brought her camera and an itinerary. What she hasn’t brought is the right bench.
Fortunately, Peter Doran is there when her tripod starts to tip.
Thank you for having me back, Sylvia. An Autumn Wish at Harbor’s Hope follows Natalie and Peter through a weekend of waterfront walks, pumpkin pastries, and a search that gives them a reason to stay together a little longer.
A photograph worth finding
Natalie’s gift has a clear purpose: she wants to honor a love story that has lasted sixty years. Recreating the photograph seems like a lovely way to do that, provided she can work out where it was taken.
Peter has a new job waiting on Monday and an otherwise empty weekend. Helping her gives them time to talk, laugh, and discover how easily a shared errand can become something neither wants to finish.
But Sunday is coming. Their lives are four hours apart, and Natalie has already experienced a relationship in which she did all the traveling. Peter is finally putting down roots. A promising weekend leaves them with practical questions about what happens afterward.
Your free autumn visit
This is a complete, standalone short romance with gentle humor, sweet kisses, and a hopeful ending. You can meet Natalie and Peter without having read the other Harbor’s Hope stories.
