Benjamin Burke left small-town Serenity Point—and the heartbreak of his teenage romance—behind for a successful life in New York City. Years later, with his father’s health in decline and an invitation to help run a basketball clinic, he returns home for the first time in ages.

Amelia Madden once sacrificed everything, including her high school boyfriend, to chase Olympic figure-skating gold. She reached the elite level but never the top of the podium. Now chronic pain has ended her career, forcing her to rebuild a quieter life in Serenity Point, the only place she’s ever known.

Ben barely recognizes the vibrant girl he once loved in the weary woman he meets again. Neither is looking for romance—yet an unexpected friendship forms. Different fears hold them back, but as their feelings change, they must decide whether to risk their hearts a second time or to let the constraints of their lives get in the way of a future together.
