Ivy Franklin, town baker and grump, is no fan of all the changes that have come to Mystic Springs in the past year. Love. Babies. More and more and more Springers, returning home. Even her twin Eve is married and expecting. She'd think about leaving town... if she had anywhere else to go. She's given up everything to make this small town her home, including her own chance at love.

When Grant Whitlock washes up on the shores of Mystic Springs with no memory of who he is or how he got there, Ivy's sure the universe is playing a prank on her. He's the sacrifice she made in order to stay safe and whole, and to make sure the man she loved could see his own dreams come true.

It isn't long before Ivy wonders if giving Grant up five years earlier was the biggest mistake of her life. Is his reappearance a second chance for both of them... or is it nothing more than a piece of a dark, twisted plot to destroy the town?
