Three years have passed since Joelle Gordon came home to Landon, Minnesota, following her heart back to her family of women and their little café on Flickertail Lake. Joelle, her sister Jillian, and her daughter Camille have grown closer through the shared heartaches and passionate loves since that first summer. Now the Shore Leave Café is again basking under the brilliant June sunshine, and this summer promises to be hotter than ever.
Jillian is pregnant with her third child but her happy existence is threatened by Justin's ex-wife and a creepy stranger who's shown up at the lake. Camille, plagued by a photo of a Civil War era man and dreams of a girl with haunted eyes, can't shake her fear of losing Mathias. A journey into the mountain country of Montana is where she counts on finding answers. Or will her actions only fulfill a Davis family curse?
