"For the first time in her life, struggling bakery owner Julie Farmington has something that is all hers. She's not interested in any entanglements or anything that takes her mind off her goal--including the handsome stranger who is only in town for a month. But her traitorous heart won't listen to reason as she starts to fall for the man who is just going to leave when he returns to his own life in Seattle. Just add yet one more name to the list of people who have walked out of her life. Forced to take time off work, Reed Newman makes a spur-of-the-moment decision and books a trip across the continent to Belle Island, Florida. This choice goes against everything in the rigid, well-planned life he fills with constant activity to keep from dealing with his pain and guilt. As he struggles to make peace with his past--and learn to relax--he finds himself falling for the charming owner of The Sweet Shoppe. When Reed's past and Julie's present collide and history threatens to repeat itself, will love win?"-- Provided by publisher.
