Publisher's Summary

On the day her daughter leaves for college, Anne Colwater's husband of 20 years announces he wants a divorce. Her roles of wife and mother suddenly gone, Annie retreats to her childhood home of Mystic, Washington, to heal. There she finds her old friend Nick, suddenly widowed and unable to cope with his emotionally scarred young daughter, Izzie.

Annie agrees to look after Izzie, and soon finds herself caring for both father and daughter with a joy and passion she never expected - and she finds her love returned with a fervor she had never even hoped for. But love is never simple, and it is not until Annie learns a hard lesson from her own grown daughter that she finds the strength to claim the happiness she has earned.

Performed well

This story was ok, but as a Kristen Hannah fan, I found that the novel lacked the substance that her other novels have had. It was more Harlequin Romance than Kristen Hannah-esque fiction.

A Soap Opera

Really predictable. The reader tried her best with the material.
I always like to finish a novel so I pushed through but sometimes I wondered why.

Harlequin Romance style

I was surprised by the way this novel unfolded- it was nought but a Harlequin Romance style read. Not thrilled and quite predictable. Disappointing

Beautiful story

I thoroughly enjoyed this book although I would have loved to see Izzie’s smile at the end. Emotional transitions seemed too quick for normality as well. But overall a can’t put down book.
