Her parents no longer have interest in making the drive north from the cities, so they’re ready to sell it. Bailey hasn’t been herself in a few years, since her husband was not at all interested in spending time at the lake, and being here with him made her miserable.Despite the fact her marriage had been unhappy, she’s still mourning the end of it, thus the reason her parents asked her to return to the town where they spent most summers when she was growing up. She’s mistaken for an intruder by the cute deputy in town, and she’s stunned to realize Zach Zephardt, her younger brother’s friend, is all grown up.And because the lake house is uninhabitable after years of neglect, he offers to let her stay with him. All the romance novels she’s ever read tell her how that ends up, but she doesn’t have a choice. Zach had a crush on Bailey back when they were young, but she was older, cooler. The woman who’s returned to Bluestone has lost her confidence, the joy she used to have, the thing that had drawn him to her. He’s determined to help her find that again.The longer she stays in Bluestone, the longer she remembers how she loved it, and the more she dreads going back to her life.But is she ready to take a leap of faith into a new adventure? less
