Becoming Us: an Early Years Novella (The Early Years Book 3)

Before the world fell apart, Gus and Jo Callahan were just two people trying to build a life together.

Before the Lodge. Before the blackout. Before survival became a way of life, there were choices that shaped the family they would one day become.

From first love and young dreams to hard decisions, growing children, and the quiet work of building a future, Becoming Us is the story of the years that made Gus and Jo—and the Callahan family readers have come to love.

Because every family has a beginning.

And every beginning becomes something more.

Becoming Us is an early-years story from the Where the Pines Still Stand universe, filled with family, love, resilience, and the ordinary moments that become a lifetime.
