Emma Hayes never thought she'd come back to Willow Creek ? the small town where everyone knew everyone else's business, and where her heart had been broken once before. But when a teaching job opens up at the local school, she returns, hoping to find clarity about her future.

What she doesn't expect is Jake Miller ? her childhood best friend and first love ? waiting there with a smile that still makes her heart race.

As the town gears up for its annual Harvest Festival, Emma and Jake find themselves thrown together at every turn ? from pie contests to rainy orchard walks. Old feelings resurface, secrets spill, and Emma is forced to face the question she's been avoiding: can she trust her heart again?

With warm autumn nights, meddling townsfolk, and plenty of small-town charm, Falling for You is a heartwarming friends-to-lovers romance about coming home, taking chances, and finding the courage to fall ? all over again.
