An inheritance has reunited three estranged cousins. Their grandmother Lucy left Nessa, Flynn, and April her home nestled in the woods near Blossom, Texas, as well as a hope chest to be unlocked after they complete a special task. Together, they must hand-stitch a cherished quilt Lucy left unfinished. It meant everything to her. And now, to three people struggling with their own patchwork pastsβ¦
To Nessa, the house has always been an escape from her strict parentsβa home away from home. Flynn has followed a profligate path into adulthood, never guessing it would lead him here.
