Books like The view from here by Cindi Myers
Maggie Carter, fresh from a divorce, inherits a gold mine in the remote town of Eureka, Colorado, from a father she never knew. Leaving behind Houston, she arrives with a quest to uncover the truth about the man who abandoned her family when she was three. In Eureka, Maggie encounters a cast of locals who shape her journey: the sharp‑tongued librarian Cassie Wynock, the ambitious mayor Lucille Theriot, and Jameso Clark, whose complicated relationship with her father and his own attraction to her test both fear and fascination. Through these connections and the town’s harsh but honest environment, Maggie confronts the sins of her lineage and her own past mistakes, learning that healing can emerge from a close-knit community and a solitary mountain landscape.
