Eleven months had not been long enough to prepare Sophie
Lawson for the sight of him . . .
After her mother was bedridden and her father bailed on
the family, Sophie became a second mother to her twin
brother, Seth, and younger sister, Jenna. Sophie supported
her siblings through their college years, putting aside her
own dream of opening a book shop in Piper’s
Cove—the quaint North Carolina beach town they
frequented as children.
But now it’s finally time for Sophie to follow her
own pursuits. Seth just got a new job, the family house is
sold, and Jenna is set to marry her college beau in
Piper’s Cove. But the destination wedding reunites
Sophie with best man Aiden Maddox, her high school
sweetheart who left her without a backward glance to run an
extreme sporting business in Florida.
Much to Sophie’s chagrin, seeing Aiden again
resurrects familiar feelings—which she promptly tries
to bury in the tumult of the day. As soon as the wedding
crowd fades, Sophie turns her focus back to establishing her
beloved bookstore.
But then an advancing hurricane strands Aiden in
Piper’s Cove and with the hotels booked to capacity he
asks Sophie to put him up until the storm passes. As the two
ride out the weather, old feelings rise to the surface. But
can Sophie trust Aiden to stick around? And does daredevil
Aiden have the courage to risk his heart?
