    About this ebook

    After tirelessly climbing the ranks of her Chicago-based interior design firm, Lane Kelley is about to land her dream promotion when devastating news about her brother draws her back home—a quaint tourist town full of memories she’d just as soon forget. With her cell phone and laptop always within reach, Lane aims to check on her brother while staying focused on work—something her eclectic family doesn’t understand.

    Ryan Brooks never expected to settle down in Harbor Pointe, Michigan, but after his final tour of duty, it was the only place that felt like home. Now knee-deep in a renovation project that could boost tourism for the struggling town, he is thrilled to see Lane, the girl he secretly once loved, even if the circumstances of her homecoming aren’t ideal.

    Their reunion gets off to a rocky start, however, when Ryan can’t find a trace of the girl he once knew in the woman she is today. As he slowly chips away at the walls Lane has built, secrets from his past collide with a terrible truth even he is reluctant to believe. Facing a crossroads that could define his future with Lane and jeopardize his relationship with the surrogate family he’s found in the Kelleys, Ryan hopes Lane can see that maybe what really matters has been right in front of her all along—if only she’d just look up.

      This is your typical romance novel, but there are issues of healing that are being addressed that are fairly significant. One of the most painful parts of this novel is the way that Lane perceives her family's relationship with her. Whether they really did betray her or whether it is just perception, either way it has harmed Lane in big ways. Because we don't see her parents' side, I think they were not that great - although Ryan thinks they are pretty awesome so there is that. I liked the idea that God has great things in store for us despite disappointments and betrayals if we just stay close to Him.
