About this listen

In the quiet Texas hill country town of Lone Star Crossing, two strangers find connection through words they never meant to share.

Jacob Hunt was once defined by strength and certainty—until an accident changed the shape of his life. Now he keeps to the margins, healing slowly, speaking even less. When he begins writing anonymous letters under the name Northwind, he expects nothing in return.

Grace Monroe has come home carrying failure she can’t quite name. Back in the bedroom she grew up in, unsure whether returning means starting over or giving up, she pours her truth into a letter signed Rosebud—never expecting anyone to answer.

But someone does.

Through a small-town tradition revived at the local post office, two wounded hearts begin a quiet correspondence—honest, unguarded, and unseen. As their letters deepen, so does the pull between them, until words alone are no longer enough.

The First Sunrise is a warm, emotionally grounded small-town romance about healing after loss, the courage to be seen, and the unexpected beginnings that arrive when we finally tell the truth.
