Ten years have passed since Finbarr O'Connor's life was changed forever by the horrific fire that still haunts Hope Springs. He's learned to navigate the world without his sight. He has even regained much of his independence. But he's exhausted, worn down, lost. So, when an opportunity arises that would make his life far easier, he's tempted. But accepting it would mean leaving Hope Springs and all his family. Emma Archer has been away from Hope Springs for nearly half a decade. Distance has helped her escape the ghosts that haunt her there. But the pain she has not entirely outrun catches up with her when a telegram arrives from an unknown sender, urging her to return home for the sake of her sister. She loves her family too much to ignore the plea, yet returning will be painful. Seeing Finbarr O'Connor again, she fears, will shatter her completely. Her unexpected return thrusts them together again. Both struggling with their pasts and unsure of their futures, they begin to find in each other some of the trust they once lost. Is there hope for something more in the pull they feel to each other, a new chance to find home, healing, and love before life pulls them apart once more?
