With the emotional pull of Debbie Macomber, Barbara Delinsky and Susan Wiggs, RaeAnne Thayne brings readers an uplifting, brand new story told with her trademark charm and heart.
She knows what's best for everyone but herself...
With a past like hers, Jessica Clayton feels safer in a life spent on the road. She's made a career out of helping others downsize--because she's learned the hard way that the less "stuff," the better, a policy she applies equally to her relationships. But a new client is taking Jess back to Cape Sanctuary, a town she once called home...and that her little sister, Rachel, still does. The years apart haven't made a dent in the guilt Jess still carries after a handgun took the lives of both their parents and changed everything between them.While Jess couldn't wait to put the miles between her and Cape Sanctuary, Rachel put down roots, content for the world--and her sister--to think she has a picture-perfect life. But with the demands of her youngest child's disability, Rachel's marriage has begun to fray at the seams. She needs her sister now more than ever, yet she's learned from painful experience that Jessica doesn't do family, and she shouldn't count on her now.
Against her judgment, Jess finds herself becoming attached--to her sister and her family, even to her client's interfering son, Nate--and it's time to put everything on the line. Does she continue running from her painful past, or stay put and make room for the love and joy that come along with it?

My Thoughts
I am a big fan of Thayne’s! When I sit down to open her books, I know that I will be taken to the heart of a fabulously written novel. One that will completely pull me into it, making me a part of the amazing, page turning novel. Reading this one did that and more! I loved every minute of this roller coaster ride!
Sisters Jess and Rachel are beautifully chiseled. They pull on your heartstrings with their ups & downs of their sisterhood. And, Nate! Let’s not leave him out. I absolutely fell hard for him! I loved his character so much. Their story lines blend beautifully together and really captured my soul. These characters bring the emotions and keeps the pages turning late into the night.
Once again, Thayne has taken family relationships, trials, self discovery, attraction and mending the broken pieces that life throws at you and created a movie-esque story. Each character found a place in my heart to stay! This 4 star story is one you want to pre-order today. It will take you on one wild roller coaster ride!
Well done, Thayne! Well done! I absolutely can not wait for another incredibly written novel.
