Ever since Olivia Quinn lost her husband to a plane crash, she's been focused on one thing—making a stable life for her teen stepdaughter, Taylor, of whom she's the sole guardian. But when she loses her job as a children's book editor because she refuses to relocate to New York, three years of hard-won stability are shattered.
Then the opportunity arises to open Liv's dream bookshop in Haven Ridge. The venture offers not only the solution to her financial problems, but a chance to bond with her stepdaughter and become a real family for the first time. Soon, the wild idea transforms into a thriving nonprofit, thanks to the generosity and enthusiasm of the town—and a handsome contractor who stirs feelings in Liv she thought might be gone forever.
But just as she begins to lean into the new life she's made for herself, a figure from her late husband's past puts the life she's been building with Taylor in jeopardy. And Liv must face the possibility that following her heart might just cost her a daughter.
