Publisher Description

#1 New York Times bestselling author Susan Wiggs returns to Willow Lake for the long-awaited story of a woman at the crossroads of love.…

Daisy Bellamy has struggled for years to choose between two men—one honorable and steady, one wild and untethered. And then, one fateful day, the decision is made for her.

Now busy with a thriving business on Willow Lake, Daisy knows she should be happy with the life she’s chosen for herself and her son. But she still aches for the one thing she can’t have.

Until the man once lost to her reappears, resurrected by a promise of love. And now, the choice Daisy thought was behind her is the hardest one she’ll ever face.…

"This book got off to a fairly slow start. I wasn't expecting Daisy, Logan, and Julian to still be so young. And then Daisy took a wrong turn after about a third of the book. I couldn't understand why everyone was encouraging her to get on with her life. Conventional wisdom is that it takes a full year to get over a relationship in which you are fully invested, no matter what caused it to end - divorce, death, break-up, whatever, and it COULD take up to three years. Otherwise you risk making a decision on the rebound and that kind of decision is rarely a good one. Fortunately, about half way through the book, when Daisy was a few years older, things began to perk up and I really enjoyed the last half of the book. Ms. Wiggs dealt well with the three way relationship, so that you did not feel sorry for the guy who lost Daisy in the end."

    " Fantastic! This is a great series, and this is by far my favorite book of the series. It was so well done- the characters, and their reactions to the circumstances that they were in, were very real, not overly romanticized, and I felt connected to the characters and their stories. Difficult to put down, once I got past the rehashing of stuff that had happened in previous books (which I felt was overdone a bit). Loved the fact that I had no idea how this book would turn out to have a HEA, so instead of forecasting I was just enjoying the story. "

    " Awesome book!!!! I had this feeling just from reading the back cover that this book was going to make me mad! But I am so happy to say that it didn't. It was the way the book SHOULD have been!!!! Great read even with never having read the previous Willow Lake books! :) WTG Susan Wiggs!!! "

    " Another five start story. This story was so 'real'. I found the plot riveting but the characters made it great. I rarely include what the book is about in reviews and do more of an impression than a review. I would read this story again. "

    " This one has a very sad story line, I wondered if it would have a happy ending. I am happy to say it did, but I found myself in tears for most of the story. Now that I have finished the series I hope she will write a few more books ... I will miss the people of Avalon. "
