She knows whatβs best for everyone but herselfβ¦
With a past like hers, Jessica Clayton feels safer in a life spent on the road. Sheβs made a career out of helping others downsizeβbecause sheβs learned the hard way that the less βstuff,β the better, a policy she applies equally to her relationships. But a new client is taking Jess back to Cape Sanctuary, a town she once called homeβ¦and that her little sister, Rachel, still does. The years apart havenβt made a dent in the guilt Jess still carries after a handgun took the lives of both their parents and changed everything between them.
While Jess couldnβt wait to put the miles between her and Cape Sanctuary, Rachel put down roots, content for the worldβand her sisterβto think she has a picture-perfect life. But with the demands of her youngest childβs disability, Rachelβs marriage has begun to fray at the seams. She needs her sister now more than ever, yet sheβs learned from painful experience that Jessica doesnβt do family, and she shouldnβt count on her now.
Against her judgment, Jess finds herself becoming attachedβto her sister and her family, even to her clientβs interfering son, Nateβand itβs time to put everything on the line. Does she continue running from her painful past, or stay put and make room for the love and joy that come along with it?
