As summer turns to fall, Liz Flores's redwood-flanked fixer-upper is her only focus. The race is on to make it livable before the cold, rainy winter strikes. Between money troubles, and the distraction of her tall, bearded neighbor who she can't seem to ignore, it isn't going to be easy. And when disaster strikes and she is forced back into her role as the family caretaker? It feels nearly impossible…
Meanwhile, Ethan Flores is just starting to get used to the idea of daily life without his estranged wife, Laurel, when she shows up, months after disappearing. Her difficult father is back in the picture, and Laurel has a secret that only makes things more complicated.
Can Ethan and his daughter Juniper forgive Laurel yet again, and let her back into their lives? Or is it better to cut bait and retreat before she destroys them both for good?
