RaeAnne Thayne takes us back to Haven Point with her story of a suspended FBI agent and an Inn owner. A woman who has a tender heart and will fight to defend her family. He's serious and by the book and hardly shows emotions. She's never wanted the life she's had and his future is up in the air. Together they must solve the mystery of a missing relative. Can their search bring forward the feelings they've had for each other for years?

Megan has been putting her dreams on hold for the last 20 years. She's getting her chance to renew her photography dreams with a gallery showing in a few weeks. Also keeping her busy is helping her brother take care of his two children and run the Inn at Haven Point, plus a photography business. Her life hasn't gone as she had wanted; with the death of her grandmother she took over the Inn and her childhood was less than perfect, and on top of that, her sister-in-law has been missing. A lot of the people in their town think her brother killed his wife and got away with it...

Megan's life gets even more complicated with the arrival of a guest by the name of Elliot Bailey, the local town hero turned crime writer. Recently injured, Elliot is back in Haven Point to heal and finish his latest book. Megan dated Elliot's deceased brother years ago, and while he's always had feelings for her, he's always hidden them because of his brother. When he ends up renting a cabin from her at the inn, they can't ignore each other, and start spending more time together, realizing they both are developing feelings for the other... But when Megan discovers Elliot has a file on the disappearance of her sister-in-law and her brother's involvement, she's unsure if his feelings for her are real and if she should take a chance on him...
