From best-selling author Kathryn Andrews comes a deeply emotional story about starting over, learning the true meaning of happiness, and finding love.

With a broken heart and a desperate need to hide from the spotlight, Chicago socialite Rylie Crest flees to a small town on the west coast of Florida to start over. On a winding crystal-clear river, under the tall pines and aging oaks, she buys an old abandoned home in hopes of restoring it, only to find that a specter of the past seems to haunt the river's edge. Filling her days by stripping wallpaper, sanding floors, and discovering the secrets her house has left behind, she fills her nights by imploring the river to take her sorrows and set her free.

But that’s the thing about hiding and secrets; whether we want them to or not, they always have a way of coming into the light.

Amid the heat of the summer and an unexpected chance at love, Rylie must learn to let go of the past and reveal what she's been hiding—only then can she discover what happiness truly is.

Fans of The House on Tradd Street, Under the Tuscan Sun, and Where the Crawdads Sing will fall in love with the descriptive Southern charm laced with secrets and mystery and romance in Where the Light Shines.
