Portrait photographer Heidi Miller came home to Bayley Falls with her camera, her cat, and exactly one rule: never shrink herself for a man again.
Boston was supposed to be her dream. Instead, it left her smaller than when she started. And done. Done with men who mistake control for love. Done making herself easy to overlook.
Then her ailing cat brings her into the exam room of veterinarian Alex Rankin, and something she thought she'd sworn off flickers back to life: hope.
But Bayley Falls isn't done testing her. When a hit-and-run leaves the town reeling, Heidi starts asking questions she can’t take back.
And she’ll have to decide if trusting Alex with her heart is worth the risk.
