Kit Porterfield is coping with the upheaval of her personal life when another shock blindsides her. Maxine Meadows, an aunt she never knew existed, has bequeathed to her a rustic campground in Maine. With it comes a long-buried family secret that Kit’s late mother took great pains to hide for her entire life. When Kit arrives to tenuously claim her inheritance, she learns the town’s history and finds the lakeside sporting camp and its beautiful wooded acres in need of restoration to their former glory. But it’s Kit’s own history that compels her to stay, and she’s not returning home until she uncovers the secrets that tore two sisters apart so many years ago. Kit soon discovers clues in old photographs and in the tale of a tragic and enduring love story. But the most startling revelations are yet to come.

After taking stock of her life, Sophie Enright discovers a shuttered restaurant and makes a bold move that is also a leap of faith. She buys the fixer-upper in order to finally pursue her dream career. Sophie’s labor of love becomes a bone of contention for her new neighbor, Jason Bowers. But when they’re paired up to work on a community project, they agree to put their differences aside, and sparks begin to fly.
