But coming back home means facing everything he left behind, including the one woman who might make it impossible to leave again. Molly McIntyre has spent her entire life in one town. Taking over her parents' small inn, she's settled into a quiet, happy life. But all of that comes to an abrupt halt when Jake shows up at her door in need of a place to stay.

After over a decade, these former lovers quickly discover what once burned brightly between them has only grown in their time apart.
