Arden Gentry flew to the lush island of Maui for one specific purpose: inserting herself into Drew McCasslin’s life. The dashing widower, having bitterly grieved the death of his wife, is ready to start living again and believes their meeting is a sign to keep moving forward. He and his young son, Matt, are drawn to Arden’s warmth and tenderness, and they open their wounded hearts to her. But even as the passion between Drew and Arden begins to point toward love, she harbors the secret behind their inextricable bond, a revelation that could rip them apart.
