She came home with nothing left to lose--except her heart.
When Madeline Stewart returns to her childhood lake town with little more than a suitcase and a heavy heart, she's determined to start over. Her carefully planned life in New York has unraveled, leaving her with more questions than answers--and a past she's not ready to face.
The town of Bluebell, however, remembers everything. Especially Trenton James.
Now a respected small-business owner and the town's dependable mayor, Trent has built a life rooted in the place--and the people--he loves. The last thing he needs is the return of the woman who walked away from him one unforgettable summer long ago. But when circumstances bring them back together, old feelings rise to the surface.
As whispers and complications ripple through the close-knit community, Madeline finds herself on uncertain footing once again--and Trent must decide where his loyalty truly lies. With Bluebell's future hanging in the balance and their hearts on the line, both will have to face what was lost . . . and what might still be found.
