It’s hard to keep a big secret in a small town . . .
When Paige Hollister discovers her “Mr. Right” already has a “Mrs. Right,” she swears off men forever. Even more humiliating, she suddenly finds herself labeled the other woman and out of the teaching job she loves. So Paige does what every unemployed single woman staring thirty in the face does: She hightails it to the beach. Bad luck like hers is hard to outrun, however. Her getaway is stalled when her car breaks down in a small-town chock full of meddling, nosy residents. The worst of them being the local sheriff—none other than her estranged father.
Finally on top of the golf world, Tanner Gillette is poised to show everyone he’s not just an entitled playboy coasting through tournaments on his pedigree. That is until his life is turned upside down by a little girl who shows up on his doorstep with a birth certificate inexplicably bearing his name. Complicating matters more, the kid isn’t talking. When the stress of caring for a child whose mother is AWOL gives Tanner a bad case of the yips, he’s forced to enlist help from the one person in town who can’t wait to leave.
Sticking around Chances Inlet and her father’s shiny new, über-successful family isn’t on Paige’s to-do list. Especially when she’d prefer to keep her embarrassing incident under wraps. Yet she can’t walk away from the troubled little girl. Or the sexy Australian golfer who just might make her want to take a chance on trusting her heart again.

Being burnt by love has not only turned Paige’s life upside down personally but professionally as well. The plan was to distance herself from the situation, but the plan didn’t include finding herself in Chances Inlet where her estranged father is the Sheriff or that she would find herself looking after the daughter that Tanner didn’t know he had.
Tanner is a professional golfer who is focused on improving his game so having Whitney, the daughter he knew nothing about, show up on his doorstep has left him reeling. He isn’t sure how to handle the situation but maybe Paige’s arrival wasn’t chance but fate.
This is a heartwarming story about love and family as both Paige and Tanner are going through a challenging time in their life and find the support they need in each other and the town.
