With a housing shortage on the island, making a deal with the man who broke her sister's heart becomes the only way to reunite her family.

Sara Chen enjoys working at the Brass Anchor Inn and hopes to be promoted to manager. And so when the inn's new owner goes on vacation, it's Sara's chance to step up and impress her boss while doing whatever is necessary to help her sister move back to the island—even if it includes dealing with a man from her past.

Kent Turner works in his family's furniture business, but he feels stifled. Every new idea he has to expand the business is shot down. Wanting to do more than the finances, he decides to put one of his ideas into action. He starts a refresh project at the local inn.

But with a big wedding coming up, the project has to be done quickly. It will mean hiring help...unless he makes a deal with the beautiful yet stubborn inn employee. If she'll help him complete the refresh project, he'll rent the apartment above the furniture store to her sister. But as they work together, secrets are revealed, relationships are given a second chance, and love is found.

Includes a recipe for Sara's apricot blondie bars!
