Publisher Description
Welcome back to Sunrise Cove for this heartwarming enemies-to-lovers tale where found family, forgiveness, and love may just be the key to finding yourself, from New York Times bestselling author Jill Shalvis.
--------------------------------------------
Lexi Clark's life is falling apart!
Summoned home to Sunrise Cove, the last thing she wants to do is face all the complications she left behind. Her past, her stepsister Ashley, and especially her infuriatingly gorgeous childhood nemesis-turned-crush Heath Bowman.
Lexi's way too focused on her job as an art appraiser, she doesn't have time to believe in trust, love, or Happily Ever Afters. Her stepsister, on the other hand, is so full of life it hurts to look at her. But Lexi can't refuse Ashley's plea to honor their late mother's final wish. So, on behalf of her estranged mother's estate-and with Heath in tow as the executor-Lexi embarks on a road trip to repay all the people her gambling addicted mother owed money to.
Soon, all of Lexi's complicated feelings come to a head; missing her mom, missing Ashley, and most of all, missing Heath. For the record, she doesn't like it, or the way he has of scaling the walls she's built around her heart. The road trip shenanigans that ensue are both funny and heartbreaking, but Lexi finds something shocking along the way. Acceptance. Family.
And, unbelievably... love.

PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
Bestseller Shalvis's emotional eighth standalone Sunrise Cove contemporary (after Better Than Friends) expertly tugs at the heartstrings. After art appraiser Lexi Clark's boss turned boyfriend dumps and fires her in one fell swoop, her stepsister, Ashley, compels her to return to the Lake Tahoe hamlet of Sunrise Cove to carry out their late mother's last wishes: delivering handwritten apologies to the people affected by her gambling addiction. It's a difficult task, as Lexi's complicated feelings about her mother, Daisy, remain unresolved, and she resents carefree younger Ashley for having evaded the brunt of the childhood trauma Lexi endured. Also back in town is Heath Bowman, Lexi's childhood friend, who is equally damaged by a rough upbringing. Their chemistry sparks as Heath helps the sisters deliver the letters, but both are determined not to form romantic ties. Through the nuanced sisterly dynamic at the novel's heart, Shalvis incisively explores the fraught aftereffects of being raised by a parent with addiction. The romance is equally well executed, with Heath and Lexi's efforts to deny their attraction doomed to fail from the start. This poignant tale is one to throw in the beach bag.
