The Day We Stayed: A Clean Small-Town Wedding Romance Novella (The Ashwell Hearts Series Book 5)
About
They came to Seabreeze Cove for the perfect wedding.
What they find is something far more important.
Matt Snyder has spent years learning that family is not always the one you begin with. In Seabreeze Cove, he found the parents he never knew, a brother he never expected, and a place that slowly made room for every missing part of his life.
Now he is returning to marry Robyn Cooper—with their daughter, Savannah, beside them and the people of Ashwell and Seabreeze gathering to celebrate.
But as wedding week begins, the carefully made plans start to unravel.
While Matt tries to protect the day Robyn deserves, Robyn begins to wonder whether she chose the wedding she truly wanted—or one designed to give Matt the homecoming he deserved.
As unexpected changes test every plan they made, friends and family gather around them, reminding Matt and Robyn that love is not found in a flawless day.
It is found in the people who stay.
Because a wedding is not made by perfection.
A family is not defined by where it began.
And sometimes the day that changes everything is the one that shows us exactly where we belong.
The Day We Stayed is a clean, emotional small-town wedding romance filled with found family, coastal charm, familiar faces, gentle humor, and the joy of two beloved series coming together.
This substantial wedding novella is nearly 50,000 words and is Book Five in the Ashwell Hearts Series. Matt and Robyn’s love story begins in The Years Between Us, but this uplifting wedding story includes enough context to be enjoyed on its own.
✨ Return to Seabreeze Cove, where changed plans and the people who show up can create something more beautiful than anything carefully arranged.
