Despite her reservations, Katie slowly begins to let down her guard, putting down roots in the close-knit community. But even as Katie begins to fall in love, she struggles with the dark secret that still haunts her ...Eventually, though, Katie realizes that a choice must be made 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 Amzon
