Our Tree in the Woods

Clara Lockwood has one goal: survive senior year and escape the secrets that have been suffocating her since childhood.

But the night a lightning strike tears through the woods, everything changes.
Clara doesn’t remember collapsing beneath that shattered tree—
but she remembers him.

Silas Everhart has spent years trying to outrun his past.
Finding Clara in the storm isn’t an accident.
It feels like a warning… or a sign.
And the moment he touches her, he knows their lives are already tangled in ways neither of them can explain.

As strange coincidences pull them closer and the truth about Clara’s family begins to surface, the two of them must finally face what they’ve been avoiding:
the pain they carry,
the choices that broke them,
and the possibility that fate has been steering them toward each other all along.

Some connections defy logic. Some loves defy time.
But the hardest truths are the ones that can save you—or destroy you.

Perfect for fans of Heart Bones, They Both Die at the End, If He Had Been With Me, and The Invisible Life of Addie LaRue, Our Tree in the Woods is a lyrical, heart-wrenching novel about trauma, timing, and the invisible threads that pull two broken hearts into the same storm.
