Clara Avery was once the most trusted midwife in her small town—calm in crisis, steady in the storm. But after a traumatic birth leaves her with memory lapses and paralyzing self-doubt, Clara steps away from the work that once defined her. When she meets Jack Willoughby, a grieving new father raising his daughter alone, Clara is drawn to the quiet strength he offers... and the strange connection she feels to the baby he cradles.

As Clara pieces together the lost fragments of that night, she finds herself pulled into Jack's world of late-night feedings, whispered stories, and unexpected moments of peace. Jack's gentle patience awakens something in her—something tender, something hopeful—but guilt and fear still grip her tightly. The whispers in town say she made a mistake. Her heart wonders if she did too.

Through slow mornings, shared silences, and the laughter of a growing child, Clara must confront the memory she dreads the most—and the truth of what she really left behind.

Can she learn to trust herself again? Or will fear keep her from claiming the life and love waiting just beyond the fog?

A tender, emotional journey of healing, trust, and second chances—where love grows not from perfection, but from presence.
