The heart remembers what the mind tries to forget. Single mother Ember Kuiper never planned to raise her daughter alone, and she certainly never planned to return to Kittering Creek. But death doesn't ask for convenient timing. Faced with settling her mother's estate and a mysterious journal filled with warnings about the Kittering family, Ember must confront both her past and the one man she's never stopped loving. Shane Kittering has built a good life on his family's ranch, but there's always been an Ember-shaped hole in his heart. When she returns with a baby and walls higher than ever, he's determined to break through her defenses and discover why she really left. The answers he finds in Sandy Kuiper's bitter journal threaten everything he though he knew about his family history. As winter settles over the valley and old wounds begin to heal, Ember must choose between honoring a promise made to the dead or embracing a future with the living. Sometimes the greatest act of courage is learning to trust again - especially when your heart is involved. Don't miss this emotional sixth book in the seven-part Kittering Creek series, where sweet romance meets small-town secrets under a blanket of snow.
