Then she meets Misha. With his mesmerizing eyes and challenging ways, he slowly breaks through the walls she’s built around herself. As summer unfolds, Charlotte finds herself falling for him, growing closer to the people of Rosetown, and facing the painful family history she’s tried so hard to leave behind.
