Publisher's Synopsis
Lettie Starcross makes her way along the cobbled streets of Heaven's Cove, clutching a little key and searching for answers about her Great Aunt Iris, whom she misses terribly. With no job back home, and no-one in her family understanding how adrift she feels, Lettie wonders if her aunt was lonely just like her? Staying at Driftwood House where Iris lived, now a cosy B&B, Lettie can almost hear Iris's laughter on the breeze. And when she locks eyes with brooding fisherman Corey as he's singing a haunting sea shanty in the local tavern, the sparks that fly between them are a welcome distraction from her grief. But everything changes when Lettie meets Corey's grandmother. Hearing the name 'Iris Starcross', her wrinkled face turns pale. Then she tells Lettie a devastating secret: 70 years ago, a choice Iris made tore apart this tight-knit community.
