Two strangers. One small town. And a past that won't stay buried.

When Presley Ingram loses the only mother she's ever known, she finds more than grief in her adoption file — she finds a torn envelope with an address in Hope Springs, Virginia. Desperate for answers and direction, Presley leaves behind her life in Charleston and heads to the mountains in search of the truth.

What she finds instead is a charming town, a dream job at a local boutique inn, and a ruggedly handsome bartender who just might be her second chance at love.

But Everett Baldwin is hiding something — a past life, a different name, and a dream that nearly destroyed him. Presley senses it in the way he looks at her, the way he listens too closely, the way he's always watching the door.

As secrets unravel and emotions ignite, Presley and Everett must decide: will the truth break them apart, or set them free?
