From New York Times bestselling author Mariah Stewart
comes
a captivating and heartwarming new novel in her beloved
Chesapeake Diaries contemporary romance series—perfect for
fans of Barbara Freethy, Robyn Carr, and Susan Mallery.
Carly Summit’s name couldn’t be more fitting, since in
life
she always lands on top. She grew up wealthy and
privileged
in a tony Connecticut town, opened her own gallery in New
York City, and is about to make art world history
displaying
previously unknown works by a prominent twentieth-century
painter. No wonder she possesses a can-do attitude that
can’t be soured. Ford Sinclair is another story. A
military
career in war-torn Africa, where he witnessed unspeakable
violence and suffering, has left him haunted and deeply
cynical. Now he’s looking for a way to forget and a place
to
belong. He hopes to find both back home in St. Dennis.
When Carly is forced to move the premiere of her new
exhibit
from her Manhattan gallery to St. Dennis, and Ford agrees
to
temporarily take over the town’s paper, the two cross
paths.
While Ford is confounded by Carly’s unflappable good
cheer,
he can’t help being drawn to her. And undaunted by Ford’s
restless heart, Carly sees a man worth caring for. But
when
a late night phone call takes Ford back to Africa, Carly’s
left to wonder if the pull of the past and its ghosts will
prove stronger than the promise of a future with her.
