Lizzi Burnett part owns and runs The Lakehouse Café. But when her abusive ex-husband wants her to sell unless she can pay him out, she’s determined that she’ll do it her way or not at all. Because she refuses to trust anyone with her or her daughter, Aimee’s, lives.

She won’t even trust Pete, who she first meets emerging from the lake like a god—or at least like a kiwi Daniel Craig. Pete has re-located to New Zealand’s Mackenzie country to start afresh. His family are all dead and he wants to move forward with his life… move forward with Lizzi and Aimee.

But what he doesn’t realize is that the hurt he sees in Lizzi’s eyes is only a fraction of what lies hidden, deep inside her. And it’ll take a whole lot of soul-searching and loving to heal that…
