After a tragedy nearly ripped 21 year old Madeline Darlington-Grayβs life in half, she's spent the past three years trying to put the pieces back together. But pieces never just fit back together, and when she's betrayed by those she trusts, everything crumbles. Shoving everything she owns into the trunk of her car, Maddie drives south, trying to run from her past. Eno, North Carolina seems like the perfect place to hide. Working at a local cafΓ© is light years from Maddie's Manhattan existence and for the first time in a while, she's finding her family. There's Grandma, the cafΓ© owner; Samantha, the hairstylist next door with plans to make Maddie's life unsuck and Noie, the three year old girl who's stolen Maddie's heart. And then thereβs Gabriel Mendez, Noieβs single dad. Heβs intrigued Maddie since the first time she met him, and while he has his own secrets, he wants more from her than just friendship. But the past never stays past, and all too soon, Maddie realizes she can't hide from hers. If she can't put the pieces of her shattered life together this time, she'll have no hope for a future. A future she desperately wants.
