One summer. One forgotten house by the sea. And a second chance she never expected.
When her husband files for divorce and leaves her with nothing but shock and paperwork, Wren Scott’s comfortable married life comes to an abrupt end. The one thing he can't take yet is Heather’s Edge, her mother’s long-empty beach house on the Midsommer Isles off the coast of Maine.
Tucked between windswept heather, tumbling beach roses, and the small seaside town of Morrow’s Bluff, the house is steeped in memory. It was once a cheerful family B&B and the place where Wren spent the happiest summers of her childhood. Yet she never meant to come back—the scandal surrounding her grandmother split the town long ago, and the scars never quite healed.
But starting over leaves Wren no choice.
As she restores the aging house, dodges judgmental neighbors, and tries to find her footing in the small community, she begins to rediscover who she is. Old friendships resurface, grumpy acquaintances soften. And Silas—the boy she once loved—reappears, older, steadier, and far harder to ignore.
Surrounded by old secrets, eccentric artists, kindred spirits, and sun-bleached lobster traps, Wren discovers that beginning again on the Maine coast is messy, muddy, magical… and impossible to resist.
