First, she'll sell the house that used to feel like home and start fresh at Whispering Pines, the Minnesota lake resort gifted to her sister by their late Aunt Celia. Her tumultuous marriage has mangled her belief in "happily ever after," yet she's excited to embrace her newfound independence. A savvy businesswoman, Jess mirrors Celia's many talents. She's determined to live up to the confidence Celia placed in her, despite a jumble of nerves and shaky optimism.

Her emotional turmoil grows when hidden secrets and shocking accusations tied to Celia emerge. A forced collaboration with a vexing younger man from her aunt's past could prove to be more than her bruised and battered heart can take.
