If You Leave

Some people call Gemma Murphy a workaholic. They say she should go on a date, live a little. She says she'll make time for fun once she earns her chair in the corner office.

Then her former roommate's husband dies suddenly, and Gemma drops everything to help. Two grieving little boys, a financial mess, and a brewing scandal later, she has temporarily traded her corner office plans for quaint MacLeod's Cove.

And the town holds one more surprise. Daniel Croft was a never-forgotten weekend fling years ago. Now he's a retired exec turned marina co-owner who's determined to remind her exactly how good they were together.

Gemma came to help a friend but is juggling beach walks and bedtime stories by day, and stolen nights with Daniel she can't resist.

Her real life is in the city. Her future is mapped out. Falling for Daniel might cost her everything she's worked for.

Maybe it's too late for a second chance.

Second-chance romance. Small-town scandal. One ambitious woman risking it all for the love she never left behind.
