A Season For Yes

Debra Collins is the most predictable woman in her town. Same morning walk. Same Tuesday soup. Same two-week vacation to the same cabin every August. She likes it that way. Routine is safe, and safe is all she has left after losing her mother and sister to breast cancer.

So when a lump shows up on her annual mammogram, Debra doesn't panic — she prepares. She writes letters. She reorganizes her files. She says goodbye to the life she was too careful to actually live. Then the results come back clear.

Standing in the parking lot of the imaging center, shaking with relief, Debra makes a decision that terrifies her more than the diagnosis ever did: for one season — just spring — she's going to say yes to everything.

Yes to the sunrise hike she's walked past the flyer for a hundred times. Yes to the ceramics class. Yes to building kites with strangers and volunteering at the animal shelter and whatever else this town throws at her. She doesn't plan on Henry Walters.

Henry is the kind of man who shows up — for everyone. He fixes the leak at the community center, coaches the kids' soccer practice, and drives across town three times a week to check on his aging parents, whose stubbornness is matched only by his refusal to admit he's stretched too thin. He's woven into every corner of this town, which means he's at every single thing Debra says yes to.

Debra is learning to live for the first time. Henry has never once lived for himself. And somewhere between a capsized canoe, a lopsided ceramic bowl, and a conversation on a porch at sunset, they start to realize that the bravest yes might be the one they say to each other.

A Season for Yes is a sweet, closed-door, small-town romance about second chances at living, and the quiet courage it takes to let someone in.
