"A wonderful read with all the feels!! Give yourself plenty of time with this one. You're going to want to read it again the second you finish!" --New York Times bestselling author Susan Mallery

Marlow Heddings is starting over. She's carried the outrage of her husband Dylan's affair with a younger woman--and the expectations of his family's powerful Chicago holdings company--long enough. Now, after another devastating twist of fate, she's unapologetically moving on.

Arriving in tiny Bramble, Kentucky, Marlow revels in her freedom, swapping her executive suits for sundresses . . . and scouting places to open her dream boutique. Best of all is her new residence, an adorable cottage with gorgeous lake views--and a breathtaking landlord, former Marine Cort Easton. Soon they're sharing dockside morning coffee and nighttime firefly gazing. Marlow's new life feels like a dream.

Then Pixie Nolan arrives on her doorstep. With a shocking secret.

To Marlow's astonishment, Dylan's "other woman" is a desperate girl of nineteen, destitute, exhausted, and disowned by her family. Defying her manipulative in-laws' demands, and surprising even herself, Marlow vows to lay down roots in Bramble and help Pixie get on her feet. Then they'll part ways. But empathy has a way of forging bonds. As Marlow grows close to the hard-working, devoted young woman, she becomes something of a big sister to Pixie.

Now, with each sunrise, Marlow awakens to the life she was truly meant to live, one filled with deepening connections, supportive friendship . . . and even a second chance at love.
