Then her grandmother shows up to supervise the project. Next door lives Hollis McGuire, the former baseball player whose career ended with an injury. Emily knew him as a boy, but now sparks ignite between them. The island begins to feel like home in ways Emily never expected. She discovers disturbing truths about the accident that killed her mother. These revelations shatter everything she believed about her family's past.
