Home to the Fletcher family for generations, Dare Island is
a fishing village rocked by changing times--its traditions
slipping away like sands of the North Carolina coast. Single
dad and fishing boat captain Matt Fletcher deferred his own
dreams to support his innkeeper parents and build a future
for his sixteen-year-old son. Matt has learned to weather
life's storms by steering a steady emotional course...and
keeping a commitment-free approach to love.
Newcomer Allison Carter came to Dare Island to escape the
emotional demands of her wealthy family. The young teacher
aims to build a life here, to make a lasting place for
herself. She doesn't want to be another Woman Who Once Dated
Matt Fletcher. It's both tempting and dangerous to believe
she can be something more.
Then Matt's brother Luke makes a sudden return home, with a
child of his own--and a request that will change all their
lives. With a child's welfare at stake, Matt must turn to
Allison to teach him to let go of the past, open his
eyes...and follow his heart.
