In the wilderness, she found her true natureBritish Columbia, 1924. Eva Roberts dreamed of blazing trails as a forester, not following a man to the edge of civilization. But when an unplanned pregnancy derails her ambitions, she finds herself in a remote logging camp, reluctantly married to her college sweetheart Thomas. As Eva struggles to carve out her place in the male-dominated world of timber, tragedy strikes. Faced with a heartbreaking loss and her career in tatters, she must decide whether to abandon her new home or stay and fight for the life - and love - she never knew she wanted.Caught between the smoke-filled saloons of Seattle and the mist-shrouded forests of Vancouver Island, Here, Now is a sweeping tale of resilience, redemption, and self-discovery set against the majestic backdrop of the Pacific Northwest. With rich historical detail and unforgettable characters, this epic saga follows one woman's journey to reconcile ambition with family, finding purpose in the most unexpected of places.
