Author's Note

Almost a decade later, Daisy Calloway returns to Willow Lake, a town shadowed in secrets and woven with heartbreak. Her goal: sell her father's cottage and avoid Zane Rivers, the guy who shattered her heart. But, as always, plans and reality don't align.

Told across different time lines - then and now. Teenage Daisy and Zane bond over their dysfunctional family lives, because what else brings two people together other than a resounding alcoholic for a mother and an abusive father?

While adult Daisy and Zane grapple with their resurfacing feelings and why it didn't work out in the first place.
