Description
A heartwarming small-town romance that will make you believe in love and second chances.
She has a million reasons to leave.
Can he give her the one she needs to stay?
Cat McGuire's return to Firefly Lake is turning into much more than she bargained for. Sure, she missed the crisp pine-scented air and the comfort of having her family around her. But being home makes her feel less like the successful single mom she is—and more like the awkward teen who never fit in. It doesn't help that hockey-pro Luc Simard is back in town, too. Luc was her childhood crush, the hometown hero who never noticed her, and yet somehow he still makes her heart skip a beat.
Luc's homecoming has been bittersweet. He's lost his wife and his career, but there's no better place to start over than Firefly Lake. Coaching the local kids' hockey team makes him feel alive again, and he thinks his life is complete—until Cat arrives. The shy girl he always wanted to protect is now the gorgeous woman who's stealing his heart and making him believe in second chances. But how can he convince Cat that Firefly Lake is where she truly belongs?
In the tradition of New York Times bestselling authors Susan Wiggs and RaeAnne Thayne comes an emotional story about finding love in the most unexpected of places from Jen Gilroy.

Gilroy’s wistful third Firefly Lake contemporary (after The Cottage at Firefly Lake) brings two sad and lonely people together for a second chance at love. Stoic widower Luc Simard returns to his small Vermont hometown of Firefly Lake to take over his family’s creamery business. He’s coaching the local boys’ hockey team and learning to live without his wife when a childhood friend returns to town with her hockey-obsessed daughter. Brainy, unlucky-in-love Cat McGuire is making do with grants while trying to land a university teaching job. She’s raising 12-year-old Amy, who insists on joining the boys’ hockey team. Cat’s always been the awkward bookworm, and Gilroy’s skillful characterization makes readers ache in sympathy. Cat’s made major mistakes in love, and Luc believes the brain aneurysm that killed his wife was due to her pregnancy, making it indirectly his fault. But when these two broken souls come together, magic happens. Cherished characters from earlier books appear, and the author also dishes up two surprises toward the end that readers will adore.
