June, 1947. Charleston is poised to celebrate the biggest
wedding in high-society history, the joining of two of the
oldest families in the city. Except the bride is nowhere
to be found
Unlike the rest of the debs she grew up with, Vada Hadley
doesn’t see marrying Justin McLeod as a blessing—she sees it
as a life sentence. So when she finds herself one day away
from a wedding she doesn’t want, she’s left with no choice
but to run away from the future her parents have so
carefully planned for her.
In Round O, South Carolina, Vada finds independence in the
unexpected friendships she forms at the boarding house where
she stays, and a quiet yet fulfilling courtship with the
local diner owner, Frank Darling. For the first time in her
life, she finally feels like she’s where she’s meant to be.
But when her dear friend Darby hunts her down, needing help,
Vada will have to confront the life she gave up—and decide
where her heart truly belongs.
