After the death of her adoptive mother, Chelsea Kane is a woman consumed by a need to discover her natural heritage. She arrives in the New Hampshire town where she was born, aching for answers. It is while she is looking for them that she finds something quite unexpected: a love she thought she would never know.
As Chelsea gets closer to the truth, she realizes that someone is determined to stop her, first by scaring her, then by trying to harm her. The danger escalates until one terrifying night when all secrets are laid bare and Chelsea finally confronts her mysterious past.

"An EXCELLENT novel. I have read it many times over and still can't get enough of it. Judd Streeter is an unforgettable character who will make you yearn for the man of your dreams and Chelsea Kane is a woman you will hope to become. Excellent tear-jerker and heart shaper."

“In this small-town romance Delinsky refreshingly takes the opportunity to poke fun at social snobbery and moral hypocrisy.”

— Judy, 1/16/2014 -
" I enjoyed it. It was a good, easy read. Great for a vacation or a few days poolside. As a reader, I prefer much heavier reads. Love memoirs, biographies, books that make you really feel something. This is not that kind of book, so I may not be giving it a fair shake. "
— Deborah, 1/11/2014 -
" I really liked the story of this book. However, it was a little graphic in some parts so be ready to skim some parts if it makes you uncomfortable! "

— Deborah, 10/18/2013 -
" Absolutely my favorite from Barbara Delinsky. I read this first as a teenager, and it got me hooked on romance novels. The characters are real and have their flaws, but it just makes you root for them more. Love it! "
— Laura, 10/8/2013 -
" The cover jacket sounded interesting, and this one did suck me back into reading. Couldn't wait to get back to it and read a little more. Characters are interesting, plot is a bit contrived, but this is a very enjoyable book. Will look out for some more by this author. "
— Laura, 9/18/2013 -
