Crown & Clover

In Derry, privacy is a kind of oath. Maeve has built a life on rules-quiet ones, the kind that keep you standing when your past comes knocking. The kettle goes on. The door stays shut. The line is clear. Then Rowan comes back. He's the man she loved, the man she lost, and the one person who can still pull truth out of her with a single look. Old hurt flares fast, but so does the heat-hot, immediate, and impossible to pretend doesn't exist. In a town that watches everything, they're forced into proximity, forced into honesty, and forced to face the one thing neither of them is ready to name out loud. Because some love stories aren't about finding someone new. They're about surviving the return of the only person who ever felt like home. Crown & Clover is a high-heat, emotionally layered Irish second-chance romance set in Derry, featuring intense chemistry, consent-forward intimacy, and a hard-won happily ever after.
