A beautiful reminder that letting go of the past can allow the future to bloom its brightest. Award-winning author Martina Boone spins a heartwarming modern love story about loss and hope, fathers and daughters, small towns and big ambitions.Cait Fletcher was always second-string in her father's eyes, unable to compete with her perfect older brother. Her father's view of her only deteriorated further when she fell for the local "bad boy" at the age of nine, but Cait's belief in Brice MacLaren never wavered until the day he betrayed her a few months before their wedding. With their tiny village in the Scottish Highlands too full of opinionated neighbors, wandering sheep, ancient grudges, and countless old traditions to let Cait escape either her past or her own mistakes, she moved away until her father's unexpected illness forced her home again.Cait discovers she still hates the village of Balwhither as much as she loves it. Mostly, she despises the fact that avoiding Brice MacLaren is a virtual impossibility. But when she discovers that her father has given up on his cancer treatments as well as on running the family Library and Tea Room, she has no choice but to put her own emotions and hurts aside. Brice promises her he's changed, and he's certainly been good to her father since Cait left. Now can they find a way to work together while she follows the example of countless unsung heroes--the women of her Highland glen--and fights to save her family?Loved by readers of Nora Roberts, Susan Mallery, Susan Wiggs, Sarah Addison Allen, Lauren K.
