A riveting book club novel of secrets, redemption, and unexpected connection. Perfect for fans of Taylor Jenkins Reid, Kristin Hannah, and Jojo Moyes. Her father died in prison. She's hidden her identity for most of her life. Until now. Scarlett vowed she'd never step foot in Brackson prison again. Yet here she is, back in her hometown, dragging disgruntled dogs into the hell her father once called home. The Pups in Prison rehabilitation program is her uncle's passion, but his recent heart attack means he's laid up and she's filling in. She's surrounded by inked necks and barbed wire…and awful memories she can't shake. She knows she's the reason her marriage is falling apart. She's been running from that knowledge like she runs from the surname that links her to her father's crimes. She didn't expect to find solace in an unexpected prisoner. Emery is intense yet kind. Strangely intuitive. She shouldn't look forward to their dog-training sessions, even if this alluring inmate shines a light on parts of herself she thought she hated. But when she discovers why he was incarcerated and violence hits too close to home, Scarlett's forced to face that forgiveness is more than spoken words and that coming undone is the first step to stitching yourself back together.
