In fact, Clara picks up and moves to escape her mess of memories. She hopes that Pine Valley will be the perfect place to heal from heartache.
When she meets her boss's lawyer, Dawson Harris, Clara can't deny her attraction. Yet she's determined to choose herself, and her healing, over a guy who might be charming, attractive, and oh, so appealing. Easy, right? But when Dawson becomes the one person who can straighten out her mess, she realizes that finding herself doesn't have to be mean losing Dawson.
