A Heartfelt Journey of Self-Discovery, Love, and Unexpected Consequences During the Holidays at The Rosewood Academy

Emmeline Somerville, The Rosewood Academy’s resident philanthropist, has always put others first—but now she must face the truth: she’s been neglecting herself.

Dealing with loneliness: Struggling with the fact that her ex-boyfriend Dave is now dating her roommate Brooklyn, Emmie must come to terms with being left behind and moving forward.

A potential new love: Enter Rob, Brooklyn’s older brother and new handyman at Rosewood, whose growing connection with Emmie turns into more than either expected—just in time for the holidays.

A split-second decision: Emmie makes an accusation against a troubled boy with a mysterious past, causing consequences neither of them could have imagined.

This Point Forward is Book 5 in The Rosewoods, a Young Adult Romantic Comedy series full of love, drama, and the journey of finding oneself amidst life’s toughest challenges.
