When you love someone, you accept the inherent risk of abandonment. Twenty-six-year-old Molly Delmar has learned this lesson time and time again. Fleeing life-threatening danger in Boston, Molly seeks refuge in her childhood home with her estranged father and brother. Amidst rediscovering kinship, Molly collides with her greatest heartbreak of all, the man who set the tone for the last decade of her life. Parker Ellis, with his gentle heart and magnetic fire, sets Molly on a course of healing and love rekindled. When the past rises like the tide, relentless and unforgiving, can Molly make peace with who she has become, and who she is meant to be? Set in the astounding Outer Banks of North Carolina, Molly's journey of strength, discovery, and resilience reminds us that darkness is simply the absence of light, and love guides us toward the sun every time.
