"Fourteen years ago, Jake Burrows enlisted in the military after the sudden death of his wife, leaving his infant son Charlie behind. When he is injured overseas, he decides to recuperate in the small town where he grew up, despite being unsure if he will be welcome at home. The calmness and peace of Windsor Peak are a sharp contrast to the war zone Jake has returned from, and the memories that haunt him. As Jake tries to fix his relationship with Charlie, the physical and mental damage from years at war continues to wreak havoc on his life. Shea Kerrigan has been writing to Jake since he enlisted, and when he interrupts a first date to announce he is home, she is shocked. She realizes that her feelings for Jake run deep, and that maybe her heart was waiting for him all these years. But should she let herself completely fall for someone who could leave her soon?"--Amazon.com.
