A Chesapeake island homecoming—and a life-changing discovery
When Ryan Hastings first came to Teaberry Island, he was a troubled teen on his last chance. He’s returning as a renowned scientist, checking in on his widowed foster mother. But one thing hasn’t changed—Ryan’s feelings for the girl next door whom he loved…and left. Mellie Anderson has a son now, and a good life that Ryan believes he’s still too damaged to share. But he knows he can help young Alfie, who’s getting picked on at his new school.
Mellie is grateful her gifted son is getting extra support, and torn about where it’s coming from. Ryan has no idea he’s Alfie’s father. No matter how valid her reasons were, could Ryan ever understand why she didn’t tell him? But in this close-knit community, friendship and forgiveness are always near at hand, and forever love might be waiting just next door.

EXCERPT
The big rambling farmhouse wasn’t fancy, but it was the best place Ryan had lived throughout a chaotic
childhood. Situated at the end of a residential street—one of only a few on the island—it overlooked the bay
and adjoined a marshland that had been the key to Ryan’s love of the area, the beginning of his interest in the
bay’s ecosystems.
Next door, with plenty of yard in between, was Mellie’s much smaller house, where she’d grown up with
her father and two sisters. It was surrounded by flowers, a rainbow of them, pretty enough for a garden
magazine. Even as a teenager, Mellie had liked growing flowers and plants, and it looked like the hobby had
become a passion.
Mellie and her sisters had been in and out of Mom’s house constantly; Ryan had seen her with skinned
knees and covered with mosquito bites and mud, far more often than he’d seen her dressed up.
In fact, there was a streak of mud on her leg now. He quelled a very inappropriate urge to wipe it off with
his finger.
