Beneath The Willow Tree

Two foster sisters who can't stand each other. One Victorian inheritance. Three months to do something good with it.

Abigail Clayton has spent her entire adult life being the easy one. The pleaser. The one who smoothed over every hard moment with a smile. Now she's a Nashville PR executive, freshly divorced from a husband who cheated, grieving a baby that never came, and pretending to her social media followers that her life is just fine, thank you so much.

Celeste Greenway has spent her entire adult life being the hard one. Abandoned at a fire station at three. Aged out of the foster system at eighteen. Now a construction manager in Texas with walls thick enough to keep out anyone who might leave first.

The only thing the two women have in common is Elaine Benson, the Seagrove foster mother who took them both in as girls and somehow loved them through every bruise life had given them. When Elaine dies, and the call comes from her attorney, Abigail and Celeste haven't spoken in years.

Elaine left them everything. A century-old oceanfront Victorian. A willow tree the whole town knows by name. And one impossible condition: they have to live under that roof together for three months, and they have to use the property to do something good for someone. If they can't, the house gets sold. The money goes to charity. And Elaine's last gift to them disappears with the tide.

Three months. Two women who'd rather do almost anything than share a kitchen. A house full of memories that hurt to walk through. And the slow, stubborn discovery that doing good for someone else might be the only thing that finally heals them both.

Then a quiet sixteen-year-old shows up at their door, and the stakes change.

A big-hearted, full-cast Seagrove story about sisters made of choice instead of blood, the family you build when the one you were born to lets you down, and the long way home for two women who never let themselves believe they deserved one.
