Despite her reservations, Katie slowly begins to let down her guard, putting down roots in the close- knit community and becoming increasingly attached to Alex and his family.

With Jo's empathic and stubborn support, Katie eventually realizes that she must choose between a life of transient safety and one of riskier rewards-- and that in the darkest hour, love is the only true safe haven"--from author's web site.
