Kathy is a writer. Kathy is getting married. It’s the summer of 2017 and the whole world is falling apart.

Troubles are escalating all over town. Sylvia has major cleanup to do, not to mention figuring out who and why - and could the vandalism to her shop have something to do with Quinn’s disappearance?

Navy SEAL Camden Bains knew when he saved the little girl from a hostage situation and placed her in the arms of her beautiful mother that he’d surrendered his heart to them, too. As much as he fought his growing attraction to a woman he’d never see again after his mission, Elena’s kindness and strength, and her daughter’s sweetness, gave Camden back what a senseless tragedy robbed him of years ago. If only for a little while.

Nicole’s reporter nose smells something amiss, and her heart aches that Quinn might be in trouble. Somehow she must help the man who anchored her through her own troubles.
