A Small-Town, Second-Chance Midlife Rockstar Romance
He left town to chase duty.
She stayed behind to build a life.
Twenty-five years later, Valentine's Day brings him home.
Kelly Donovan never expected to see Jack Carter again-especially not in Magnolia Ridge, the quiet Washington town where they once dreamed of everything and promised each other nothing.
As teenagers, Kelly was the lead singer and rhythm guitarist of Dead Magnolias, a punk band fueled by ambition, late nights, and first love. Jack was the backup singer and lead guitarist-the boy who made her believe music could change their lives.
Then he left.
At nineteen, Jack joined the Army and disappeared from her life without looking back. Now, retired after a twenty-five-year military career, he's back in Magnolia Ridge-temporarily living with his parents, trying to figure out who he is without uniforms, deployments, or constant movement.
Kelly has changed too. She's built a steady life as Magnolia Ridge's community arts coordinator, teaching music lessons on weekends and keeping her heart carefully protected.
When Kelly decides to host a Valentine's Music Showcase at the community arts center, unfinished history resurfaces. Old bandmates. Old songs. Old feelings that never fully faded.
But this time, neither of them is chasing dreams-or running from them.
They're older. Wiser. And painfully aware that love, once broken, doesn't get unlimited chances.
As Valentine's Day approaches, Kelly and Jack must decide:
Is the love they left behind something to revisit-or something to finally release?
Be Mine Again, Valentine is a heartfelt, slow-burn romantic comedy about:
