Maybe everything happens for a reason. And maybe, just maybe, she wants Mason back. But there are secrets afoot in this small southern town. On the peaceful surface of Hideaway Lake, Annajane discovers that the past is never really gone.

"This chic lit southern style is very enjoyable and fun. The story starts with Annajane attending her ex husband's wedding which is suddenly postponed. Is there a chance to rekindle the love even though their marriage was a disaster. I had a lot of fun reading this book and enjoyed getting to know Pokey and Mason."

“Kathleen McInerney's narration is clear, crisp, and appealing…The Southern accent she creates is effective in all its forms: soft and sweet or acerbic and cold. This entertaining, contemporary romance is perfect for light, summer listening.
— Publishers WeeklyNarrator Kathleen McInerney does the book proud, conferring subdued Southern accents on the Carolina natives and distinguishing between men and women with unobtrusive variations in key. She gives a pint-size, non-icky voice to a mystery child, Sophie, and a perky, uber-yummy Midwestern accent to the Nebraska-born manipulator, Celia. The book is a sparkler with just desserts and comeuppances dished all around.
— NewsdayKathleen McInerney perfectly presents this cheerful, funny story about second chances and true love. It's a story full of Southern charm and witty dialogue, and McInerney's Southern accents are well done. Her fake ‘sweet' voice for the villainous Ceila is enough to make one's teeth hurt, and everyone would love to have a best friend like Mason's determined sister, Pokey. A superior listen leaves one smiling.

— Marianne, 2/14/2014" Great beach read set in North Carolina centered around the family owners of Quikie Cherry Soda - a thinly disguised Cheer Wine! Reads like a soap opera! "

— Tricia, 1/31/2014" This is the first time I have read a book by Mary Kay Andrews and I liked her writing. Though I thought the book dragged near the end, I liked the plot and how she tried to throw turns in the book to keep you guessing. I can't wait to read one of her other novels. "

— Shannon, 11/21/2013" I love these books, they remind me of my family, feisty southerners. "
— Renee, 11/13/2013" Really I would give this a 2.5. I found the story to be promising but overall it seemed to lack much depth in its execution. I just couldn't connect with the characters enough and the ending seemed anticlimactic. I enjoyed it enough and would recommend it as a good beach read but not much more. "
— Amanda, 10/15/2013" Breezy and fun without being simple and silly -- which is why I enjoy Andrews' books. Fans won't be disappointed, newbies'll likely root around for more of her work. Great for the beach or the back porch on a lazy summer evening. "
— Priscilla, 10/15/2013" While the book was a bit slow and disjointed at the start, it quickly came together and turned into a fun, sizzling, Andrews' classic. Definitely worth reading! "
— Megan, 8/14/2013" I was a little disappointed. Like her other books much more... "
— Terrance, 7/22/2013" Mindless summer fare. "
— Amianne, 6/3/2013" Fun read. Little disclaimer that there is some cussing. I can overlook it but wanted to put it out there. Also a little pg13 moments. So if that bothers some. Don't read "

— Snap, 10/14/2012" not a quirky as her other books but all together it was alright ... "
— Lynn, 9/19/2012" Mary Kay Andrews books are always entertaining and great for a light read. Although it starts out strong and really engaging, I felt it got cheesy and even more predictable than her usual formula. It was still good, but I didn't enjoy it nearly as much as The Fixer Upper. "

— Laura, 7/9/2012" perfect chick lit, fun, good story line, happy endings. "
