Description

Becca Trevor never planned to see Jack Wolfe again. But fate—and fire—have other ideas…

After losing her job, her boyfriend, and her apartment in one disastrous week, Becca Trevor retreats home to St. Caroline for what she’s calling Operation: Figure Out Her Life. So far, it’s not going well. Case in point: her first night back, she gets trapped inside her mother’s quilt shop as it goes up in flames.

Worse? She’s rescued by none other than Jack Wolfe—the man she thought she’d left in the past for good.

Jack was once the golden boy of St. Caroline—Ivy League bound and destined for a high-powered legal career far away from his family's legacy in the fire department. Now he’s back for the summer under the guise of helping out with a family emergency. Pretending to be the successful corporate lawyer everyone expects is easy… until Becca shows up and threatens to unravel his carefully crafted lie.

But Becca has a secret of her own. One she’s kept hidden for years. And when the truth comes out, it will change everything between them.

Set on the sun-dappled shores of the Chesapeake Bay, this heartfelt romance is perfect for readers who love second chances, small-town charm, and emotionally rich love stories with a guaranteed happily ever after.

    The sweetest book I read this year. Beautifully written, with the exact dose of emotions. This is a story about love, family, resilience and self forgiveness.
  • Really sad. No that romantic

    New author for me. Enjoyed the story and characters. Very emotional for several reasons, but I won’t ruin it for you by revealing the reasons. Try it, I think you’ll like it.

    Beautifully written, emotionally stirring story of two and their intertwined families, who have made mistakes in their youth, but are given a second chance for a HEA. The author keeps you turning the pages with twists in the story as well as her wonderful descriptions of her character’s emotions .

    A heartwarming, heart breaking story. You’ll get angry(at least I did) you’ll laugh and you’ll definitely cry. A moving HEA

    This was a wonderfully written book full of emotions and a beautiful love story. It’s amazing how God works things out for the best even if it takes heartbreak in between. I would recommend this to anyone who likes an unconventional love story and lots of family love.

    the writing was good but the plot line needed help... there was just no climax to the story. no angsty fight or tears or anything between Becca and Jack. which maybe was intended but it all just felt super anti-climactic to me.
  • Love this book!

    Heartfelt story about watching cancer take away those you love, and the challenging decisions that come with teenage pregnancy. Research is evident in the writing. Can be read as a standalone. If I had to nitpick it would be that a few things felt repetitive or over-explained, and chapters could be better transitioned so readers don’t have to frequently puzzle out how much time has elapsed in between. Otherwise this is an overall good read.

    Loved the book. The tight knit family of characters who loved and supported each other in difficult times. A little bit of stretch in the reunification of an adopted child with birth parents. A warm and happy HEA, some of our poor decisions can turn into good one eventually!
