Can Amy ever overcome being that girl who did that thing?
Eight years ago, Amy Monroe made a colossal mistake when she put her trust in a man who didn't deserve it. When it blew up in her face in a very public way, the events made her rethink everything in her life. Now, after lots of therapy and a new professional direction, she's on a good path, and even due for a promotion. Until her great aunt leaves her a crumbling Victorian mansion in her tiny hometown, a town she has avoided going back to since The Incident.
All Amy wants to do is renovate the house, sell it, and get back to her life as a marketing consultant in California, but Haverhill has a way of drawing people in. Before she knows it, Amy, an atheist, is asked to help revive her community's dying church, befriends the new minister, and inherits custody of her family's aging pug. When her contractor turns out to be a past crush, her resolve never to let a man get as close to her as the last guy is tested hard. Pretty soon Amy is fully enmeshed in her hometown. So much so that when a crooked preacher threatens to defraud the people of Haverhill, Amy is determined to stop him.
Once again loss, love, and a longing to find her place, has Amy questioning everything. Is she sure about the career she's chosen? Can she find a place for herself in the town where so many people bore witness to her worst mistake? And most of all can she learn to trust a man again?
