She broke off their engagement and left town for good. Now she has to face him-and the town that remembers.
Claire Hartley built a perfect, controlled life in Boston after walking away from Lilac Cove-and the man she was supposed to marry. She never looked back. Not even for her mother's last years.
Now she's home, running the bookshop's books and sleeping in her childhood bedroom, holding the whole town the way she's held everything since she left: at arm's length.
Then Ben Calloway comes back to settle his late father's chandlery on Water Street. He's civil. He's brief. And when Claire offers a hand, he tells her plainly-he doesn't want her help.
But the chandlery's affairs are a mess, a developer is circling, and Claire is the only one who can untangle the numbers. Day by day, the distance between them cracks-just a little-until Claire lays the full truth open.
Now Claire has to decide-can she choose to stay... without any guarantee he will?
