Sarah Cole has spent years looking after other people’s houses. This time, she wants to stay.
Widowed architect Noah Vance arrives in Briarport with his young daughter, Maya, and an old house that needs more work than he can afford. He wants somewhere they can begin again.
Sarah can help. As the town’s historic preservation director, she has the original plans and knows who to call when the repairs go wrong. She’s good with Maya. She makes things easier at a time when Noah is tired of doing everything alone.
For Sarah, an afternoon in their kitchen soon matters more than anything waiting at home.
As Noah and Maya settle in, they begin making choices she doesn’t like. Sarah starts correcting those choices, sometimes before Noah knows there’s anything to discuss. She knows things he hasn’t told her. People who upset him become problems she feels entitled to solve.
Noah asks her to stop.
Sarah has heard how exhausted he sounds when he thinks nobody is listening. He needs someone who will see things through.
And she has already done so much.
I Was Only Helping is a dark psychological thriller told by a woman whose kindness is real—and whose idea of love leaves very little room for anyone else’s wishes.
