When forensic accountant Ivy Montgomery returns to Laurel Ridge to settle her grandmother's estate, she expects paperwork, probate, and a quick sale. Instead, she inherits half of a crumbling mountain inn-and the other half belongs to Reid Harrison, the man she left behind ten years ago.
Margaret Montgomery's will comes with one condition: Ivy must live at the Laurel Ridge Inn for ninety days, keep it open, and prove the place still matters. Ivy wants nothing more than to finish the transaction and return to Chicago, but the old house has other plans. Hidden beneath its floorboards is a ledger that points to decades of buried money, land deals, and a town that has survived by keeping dangerous secrets.
As Ivy follows the numbers, she uncovers a conspiracy tied to a failed development project, a powerful judge, and families who traded silence for security. The deeper she digs, the more Laurel Ridge turns against her. Windows are broken. Warnings appear. Old friends become suspects. And Reid, still angry but still protective, may be the only person who understands both the house and the mountain well enough to keep her alive.
But the truth Margaret protected was never just about money. It was about land, loyalty, betrayal, and the cost of staying silent when an entire town chooses comfort over justice.
To save the inn-and the man she never stopped loving-Ivy must decide whether Laurel Ridge is a past to escape or a legacy worth fighting for.
