Professor Philip West never wanted to return to Maine . . . or his
grandfather’s miserable old house. But after his mother’s death, he’s
now the guardian of a teenage half sister who doesn’t want anything to
do with him. He longs to help her heal, but he’s exhausted and numb,
desperate for relief of his own. Maybe that’s why he’s so easily
distracted when he happens upon the little shop with an intriguing
owner—one who happens to share a name with someone from his
grandfather's mysterious past.
More than a decade has passed
since Indi Muir made the heartbreaking decision she’s never recovered
from—though she’s certainly tried. She has a full life running her shop
and creating the artsy pieces that fill its shelves. If she can just
stay busy, she’ll keep her hurt and regret at bay. But when her
ex-fiancé returns to Muir Harbor, he brings news that shatters her
carefully built walls. Things only get worse when lurking danger comes
calling at her childhood home.
The one bright spot amid Indi’s
turmoil is the shy stranger who wandered into her shop months ago and
his moody but lovable sister. As she confronts her past and the
mysterious threat facing her family, she’s intent on helping Philip win
over his sister. He just might win over Indi, too, if they can overcome
old secrets and wounds, outrun rising peril . . . and take a chance on
love.

My Review
I thoroughly enjoyed this read, and now looking forward to the next book in this series!
This is Christian mystery/suspense, a page turner for sure! I had to have answers, and yes, there are several questions, and a few are still lingering!
I loved how the author built this story and how the right people are put on the path they are supposed to be, oh, but there are surprises that end up on them too!
There is danger lurking, and some may not survive, but what an adventure you experience as you turn the first page! Some surprises even come out or wardrobes!
We are also gifted some sweet romance, and I'm hoping for more!
I received this book through Net Galley and the Publisher Larkspur Press, and was not required to give a positive review.
