Blurb
When a woman runs from family, fortune, and secrets, love follows in New York Times bestselling author Ruth Cardello’s dazzling romance.
The Boston Westerlys are reuniting for a wedding—a longtime wish for its matriarch. If only Nicolette, the youngest of the clan’s siblings, could find love. With her true parentage suddenly in question, she feels like more of an outsider than ever. It figures that the one guest of any comfort is her grandmother’s greatest enemy. Now, Nicolette’s only impulse is to run. Disappearing to a small Iowa town, she can build a future on her terms without the Westerly name or money—or the secrets that have divided the family for years.
Despite his damning history with the Westerlys, Bryant Taunton recognizes a kindred spirit in Nicolette. He is drawn to the beautiful loner. When she vanishes, he follows. But Bryant has his own secrets, and gaining Nicolette’s trust won’t be easy. It might even require the help of the family she left behind.
Now, for Nicolette and Bryant, coming to terms with the past is the only way to make both their dreams come true, and to finally find a way home.

Review
Nicolette is at a crossroads in her life as she is not sure where she belongs in her family or even if she belongs. She has returned home for her brother’s wedding and although she has had a few drinks too many she can’t deny her attraction to Bryant even if he is viewed as her family’s enemy.
When she receives a request to bring attention to a small town in Iowa and help them prosper her reasons for going is twofold as it will give her the space she needs and helping others in the process. The last thing she expected was for Bryant to follow her or that he may be the one person to help her heal and find her way back to her family.
Bryant is the perfect man for Nicolette as he is patient and understanding and it is only a matter of time before he not only convinces Nicolette that they belong together but her family as well. I have enjoyed this series and this book is no exception.
