Love heals in New York Times bestselling author Sharon Sala's newest contemporary romance There is always hope After eight years in the Marines, Jacob Lorde returns to Blessings, Georgia, with no plans other than to hole up in his empty house and heal what's left of his soul. But with a charming next door neighbor and a town full of friendly people, keeping to himself is easier said than done. As long as you can come home Laurel Payne understands far too well what Jake is going through, after witnessing her late husband experience similar problems.
