    Abe Winter and Ruth Warneke were never meant to be together—at least if you ask Ruth. Yet their catastrophic blind date in college evolved into a seventy-year marriage and a life on a farm on Bainbridge Island.

    Through the years, the Winters have fallen in and out of lockstep, and from their haunting losses and guarded secrets, a dependable partnership has been forged.

    But when Ruth’s loose tooth turns out to be something much more malicious, the beautiful, reliable life they’ve created together comes to a crisis. As Ruth struggles with her crumbling independence, Abe must learn how to take care of her while their three living children question his ability to look after his wife. Once again, the couple has to reconfigure how to be there for each other.

    In this bighearted and profound portrait of a marriage, Jonathan Evison elegantly braids the Winters’ turbulent history with their present-day battles, showing how the oddly paired college kids became parents, fell apart and back together, and grew into the Abe and Ruth of today.

    Endlessly heartwarming and moving, The Heart of Winter is a reminder that true love lives in small, everyday moments.

    Over 8,450 5-Star Reviews!

    Two women, generations apart, in the spotlight. A powerful novel about family secrets, devastating choices, and hope for the future by the bestselling author of When I’m Gone.

    Camera-shy Elise Branson is different from the other women in her maternal line. Her mother is an award-winning actress. Her late grandmother, Vivian Snow, is a beloved Hollywood icon. But when Elise’s upcoming wedding coincides with a documentary being made about Vivian, Elise can’t escape the camera’s gaze. And neither can her grandmother, even in death.

    It’s 1943 when Vivian, a small-town Indiana girl, lends her home front support to the war effort. As a translator in the nearby Italian POW camp, she’s invaluable. As a celebrated singer for the USO, she lifts men’s spirits and falls in love with a soldier. But behind this all-American love story is a shocking secret—one that is vital to keep buried if Vivian is to achieve the fame and fortune she covets.

    For Elise and Vivian, what’s hidden—and what’s exposed—threatens to unravel their lives. The heart-wrenching choices they must make will change them both forever.

    When Eleanor Bradshaw’s husband announces on their anniversary that she’s become too “boring” and “unadventurous” for him and wants a divorce, she finds herself starting over in her mid-forties.

    Heartbroken and unsure of what comes next, Eleanor makes an impulsive decision. Determined to prove she’s still capable of change and courage, she buys an old house in the charming seaside town of Magnolia Shore, with plans to renovate it and make it feel like home.

    But this fresh start turns out to be harder than she expected.

    The house is in far worse shape than she realized, and as Eleanor struggles to learn the finer points of home repair, she keeps running into grumpy hardware store owner Garrett Wilder. Garrett insists he has no interest in the intriguing newcomer. But if that’s true, why does he keep showing up to help with the trickier projects and finding excuses to stick around?

    As Eleanor begins to rebuild her life on her own terms and tentatively acknowledges the butterflies Garrett stirs in her, she forms unexpected friendships with a group of women in Magnolia Shore. When they start a book club together, the warmth, support, and laughter Eleanor finds among them gives her the confidence to fully embrace this new chapter of her life…

    …and to believe that her second act might be even better than the first.

    A hopeful and heartfelt story of fresh starts, found family, and the connections that make life richer and more meaningful.
