New York Times bestselling author Jill Shalvis returns to Wildstone with the touching story of finding your place in the world--and the people who make it home.

When a massive storm hits, she runs into a tall, dark and brooding stranger, Camden Reid. There''s a spark there, one that shocks her. Surprising her further, her sister and brother return, each of them holding their own secrets. The smart move would be for Piper to ignore them all but Cam unleashes emotions deep inside of her that she can''t deny, making her yearn for something she doesn''t understand. And her siblings...well, they need each other. Only when the secrets come out, it changes everything Piper thinks she knows about her family, herself...and Cam.
