Grief binds the lake's only residents into an unlikely family, where old and new love build a bridge between loss and hope.For years, best-selling author Cora Bradford has worked tirelessly to tread the unrelenting waves of grief in solitude. That is until a new neighbor moves in down the road and threatens to disrupt what she's carefully preserved of the life she once knew. Will God ever answer her prayer for peace and calmer waters?Following a scandal, Pulitzer Prize-winning photojournalist Luke Bassett escapes to the one place in the world he's ever felt peace-his mother's cabin on the lake where he spent childhood summers. But the memory of her and the mistakes he made are hardly peaceful. To make matters worse, he gets off to a rocky start with his bitter, but breathtakingly beautiful, neighbor. Was running away from the life he's always known the biggest mistake of all, or the beginning of the life he never knew he wanted?Spunky, opinionated, and recently widowed Ina McLean is alone for the first time in over ninety years. When Cora and Luke come together to care for their only other neighbor, Ina's belief in God's goodness through life's ups and downs works to restore their hope in learning to live-and love-again.
