Unity House
What begins as one man’s attempt to rebuild his life becomes a story of connection, resilience, and the fragile line between hope and heartbreak.
Tanner Dalton has gone from semi-wealthy to counting every dollar, leaving Massachusetts behind to care for his dying mother in California’s East Bay. Struggling to find direction, he crosses paths with three women who will change his life in profound and unexpected ways: Carmen, spirited yet scarred; Tammy, his bold childhood friend; and Sophie, whose wisdom and warmth leave an indelible mark — even after tragedy strikes.
It is with Carmen that Tanner finds himself creating Unity House, a place that promises new beginnings. But the path to redemption is never simple. Secrets emerge, grief reshapes them, and danger threatens to shatter the fragile hope they’ve built.
From the fiery warmth of Es Picante, a restaurant alive with culture and community, to the shocking violence that alters everything, Unity House is a multicultural, emotionally charged novel about finding love, forging second chances, and discovering the strength to begin again — even when the past refuses to let go.

Hardcover. Condition: new. Hardcover. What begins as one man's escape from heartbreak becomes a journey into rediscovery, resilience, and the healing power of human connection.After the collapse of his marriage and financial security, Tanner Dalton leaves behind the familiar landscapes of Massachusetts and heads west to California, where his mother is nearing the end of her life. Instead of comfort, he finds a place he barely recognizes-Concord, a city marked by crime, hardship, and uncertainty. At sixty, Tanner is forced to confront not only his dwindling resources but also the gnawing fear that he no longer belongs anywhere.A chance visit to Es Picante, a small Mexican restaurant tucked into a modest shopping plaza, sets in motion a series of changes Tanner never could have predicted. Welcomed by Carmen and her father, who run the restaurant with warmth and quiet determination, he finds not only a job but also a sense of community he thought he had lost forever. Their kindness, and the vibrant cultural world they open to him, becomes a lifeline that pulls him back from despair.But the West Coast is also full of shadows from Tanner's past. Reconnecting with Tammy, a fiery and unforgettable woman from his youth, throws him into a storm of unresolved feelings. Their bond is magnetic, complicated, and impossible to ignore. Together they revisit old dreams and confront long-buried wounds, challenging Tanner to face the question of what a second chance in life-and in love-might really mean.Tanner's journey is not linear. From the adrenaline rush of skydiving over California's brown hills, to the psychedelic reflections of mushroom tea under candlelight, to the grounding rhythms of honest work at Es Picante, his path is messy, raw, and transformative. Through every risk and revelation, he wrestles with regret, hope, and the fragile courage required to keep moving forward when the odds seem stacked against him.Returning east, Tanner eventually discovers the welcoming walls of Unity House in Massachusetts, where strangers become family and where healing takes root in surprising ways. There, he learns that resilience is not about never falling, but about finding the strength to rise-again and again-and to embrace the people who walk beside us.Unity House is a deeply emotional, character-driven novel about starting over when the world tells you it's too late. Keith Christian Milne weaves together themes of resilience, redemption, multicultural connection, and the universal search for belonging. For fans of contemporary fiction that blends grit with grace, this is a powerful reminder that life rarely follows the plan we write for it, but the people we meet along the way can change everything. Unity House is a deeply human story of second chances, chosen family, and the quiet courage it takes to start again. This item is printed on demand.
