Publisher Description
Sarah Talbot never thought she'd live to see another birthday. But through indomitable will and expert medical care, she has beaten the cancer and reopened her bedding boutique, Cloud Nine. In celebration, Sarah's friends give her a special present: a ride over her upstate New York town in a chartered plane. It is on this flight that Sarah meets Will Burke, a former Navy pilot, whose outward confidence hides the wounds he has yet to heal.
A bond is forged between them. Now Sarah, determined to complete her recovery, decides to visit the isolated Maine island where she grew up—and where the two most important people in her life, her father and her son, are waiting. Will joins her quest. But the journey will be a heart-wrenching test of her courage, and becoming whole will require the one thing Sarah can least afford: time.

"This book took me a bit to finish it. While most of her books hook me right in the beginning this one kept losing me. I finally made myself sit down and finish it and was glad I did. Luanne wrapped it up nicely in the end."

" I had a hard time getting into this book. About half way I was engaged by the plight of Sarah, her future with her father, George, her son, Mike, and her developing love, Will as well as Willl's daughter and their grief from the death of Fred. "

" I know she writes very heart wrenching stories but it just had too much tragedy to go around for my taste. The characters didn't grab me as much as Summer's Child and another of hers I've read. "

" Listened to about 1/2 of this book, and finally realized I just didn't like it. Characters seemed without depth and really didn't have any reason to want to finish it. I don't believe I will miss anything by not finishing it. "
— Ginny, 10/29/2011 -
