College sweethearts reunite to restore more than just an old inn in this new romance by Katie Shepard, author of Sweeten the Deal.
When’s the best time to tell your ex that you want them back?
Probably not in the middle of a Category 3 hurricane. But when Broadway actor Tom Wilczewski is about to dive into the floodwaters to rescue his co-lead, he calls the ex-wife he hasn’t seen in ten years to swear he still loves her and ask for a chance to make things right.
Two months later, Rose Kelly is tired of seeing pictures of her ex-husband Tom rescuing Hollywood darling Boyd Kellagher. Not that she’s jealous. Of course not. She’s far too busy taking care of her elderly aunt and worrying about the storm damage to the family B&B on Martha’s Vineyard to miss the love of her life. But after belatedly hearing Tom’s voicemail, Rosie asks him to follow through on his promises for once by helping her fix the inn. Thinking this is the perfect way to win her back, Tom agrees.
When they get there, things are…less than ideal. Rosie expected the inn to be in better shape. She expected it to have more beds. And she expected more help from her actual family—not from Tom and the rest of his Broadway cast. But Rosie begins to wonder if maybe the life she expected isn’t the one she really wants. If she and Tom can repair the inn together, can they possibly repair the damage to the relationship they both thought was long gone?
PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
A near-death experience leads to a loving reunion in this heart-tugging romance from Shepard (Sweeten the Deal). When movie star Boyd Kellagher's car goes over an embankment during a hurricane on Long Island, his costar Tom Wilczewski risks his life to save Boyd from drowning—but first he takes a moment to call his ex-wife, Rose Kelly, to profess his love and wish for "a chance to make it up" to her. After discovering Tom's voicemail three months later, Rose takes Tom up on his offer, asking him to help repair the hurricane damage to her elderly aunt's inn on Martha's Vineyard. Tom readily agrees, hoping to prove his love for Rose. When the damage proves too much for him to handle alone, he recruits an unlikely crew of helpers, including Boyd, whom Rose wrongly believes is Tom's boyfriend due to paparazzi photos of them together, and the groupies who have followed Boyd to Martha's Vineyard. Somewhere along the way, Rose starts to believe Tom's vow that he never stopped loving her. Shepard's authentic, imperfect characters lend credibility to the possibility of second chances. Readers will cheer for Rose and Tom to find their way back to each other.
