Miles Ryan's life seemed to end the day his wife was killed in a hit-and-run accident two years ago. Missy had been his first love, and Miles fervently believes she will be his last. As a deputy sheriff in the North Carolina town of New Bern, Miles Ryan not only grieves for Missy, but longs to bring the unknown driver to justice.

Then Miles meets Sarah Andrews. The second grade teacher of his son Jonah, Sarah had left Baltimore after a difficult divorce to start over in the gentler surroundings of New Bern. Perhaps it is her own emotional wounds that make her sensitive to the hurt she first sees in Jonah's eyes, and then his father's. Tentatively, Sarah and Miles reach out to each other. Soon, they are both laughing for the first time in years...and falling in love.

Neither will be able to guess how closely linked they are to a shocking secret - one that will force them to question everything they ever believed in...and make a heartbreaking choice that will change their lives forever.

Loved this book! Usually only listen to a chapter or two each night, but this kept me me up twice as long each night until the last 10 or so chapters and then I had to listen to it all the next day.
I was surprised of the ending and also disappointed. But I was also relieved at some of it. So without giving any of it away, you MUST read this wonderful book!!

From the title and 2 hours into the book I had a pretty good idea how it would end. Regardless of that fact I has to keep listening and I was not disappointed with the ending. So believable
