Description

Tessa Pearson had it all, but when a drunk driver killed all she held dear, she found herself alone in the world. Wanting nothing more than to escape the constant pain of the past two years, she starts a new life in a quiet seaside town, opening an all-romance bookstore. However, delays and challenges, not to mention the property owner's suspicious—yet far too handsome—grandson, threaten to destroy her dream and the peace she's been craving.

After three years of hiding the truth of his failed marriage, Rex Kingston decides it's time to return to his hometown and to his grandmother—the only woman he's ever trusted. However, when Rex arrives in Devlin, he discovers his grandmother has let a woman a fraction of her age live in her house and use the converted carriage house for a bookstore. He immediately suspects Tessa is taking advantage of his grandmother's generosity. However, he soon realizes there is much more to the stubbornly sweet, determined woman than meets the eye.

But just as Tessa opens her heart to Rex, his ex-wife shows up with shocking news that threatens to destroy their newfound love.
