Close to Home

Eli Thomas is going home for Christmas just like she does every year--only this time it's different. Her grandmother has died, and she's forced to reckon with her past, her broken relationships with her remaining family, and Aracely Hernandez, the girl who got away.

A seemingly purposeful error in Grandma's will keeps Eli in town for longer than she planned and brings all the conversations she's been avoiding for twenty years to a culmination. While her attraction to Aracely has never faded, Eli remains apprehensive to follow her heart and risk having it broken again.

Now she has to decide if avoiding her hometown forever is worth losing the people who used to mean the most to her.
