She’ll have to let go of the life she planned to find the one that’s waiting for her.

Maddie Trudeau’s world is turned upside down when Landon Baxter—the impulsive husband she’s on the brink of divorcing—dies in a mountain-biking accident. Needing help raising her five-year-old twins, she moves in with her free-spirited mother and her newly rescued Great Pyrenees. Maddie’s world is rocked even more when a young woman shows up at their door with shocking ties to her late husband.

Jordan Hill isn’t one to ask for favors. Her own family never did her any, so she can see no reason to wish for kindness from a stranger. Yet, she’s certain Maddie is the one person she needs in her life above all others right now.

Noel Ward hopes to be the refuge and support Maddie and her children need at this tumultuous time, but he was Landon’s best friend and, inadvertently, a long-ago source of a broken heart for Maddie. It’s a fool’s hope that she’d open her heart to him a second time, but a fool’s hope is better than none.

Amid all the chaos, Maddie faces an unprecedented battle to carve out a new life on her own terms, but if she can do it, she might just realize that sometimes life’s detours lead you right where you’re supposed to be.
