Suddenly facing Rumer again, Zeb discovers where he belongs. He could never forget the girl who used to climb onto his roof with him to watch the stars. But neither Zeb nor Rumer knows if it's too late to do more than regret the path not taken - or if every path leads us back to the one true love of our life….

Jane Porter left the apple orchards of rural Twin Rivers, Rhode Island, years ago, fleeing memories that could tear two families apart. Now she has been unexpectedly drawn home to her mother and only sister. Dylan Chadwick has come back, too, shedding the steely exterior he wore as a federal agent in order to follow in the footsteps of his apple-farming father and forget the life he once lived. Amid this landscape of loss and renewal, a haunting story of converging lives, small-town secrets—and the magical sway of unexpected miracles—unfolds.

Seventeen-year-old Aidan Lockwood lives in the sleepy farming community of Temperance, Ohio - known for its cattle ranches and not much else. That is, until Jarrod, a friend he hasn't seen in five years, moves back to town and opens Aidan's eyes in startling ways: to Aidan's ability to see the spirit world; to the red-bearded specter of Death; to a family curse that has claimed the lives of the Lockwood men one by one...and to the new feelings he has developed for Jarrod.

Loved it.
Another excellent story from this author, with a theme of family and sisters and a strong environmental element. At one point I thought the sisters would never reunite but the epilogue was perfect. Really enjoyed it. Wonderful narration added to this well written book.

my first Rice
First time author, Luanne Rice. I'm not sure how I came across this book, audible suggested it, maybe as part of a book sale. I looked at it 2-3 times before I decided to buy it, thinking I like to try new authors and I liked the small town aspect of it. It was an enjoyable listen, easy and quick, and similr to a Nora Roberts book. It was based on a story of two sisters, one who grew up best friends and in love with the boy next door and, of course, he married the other sister and realized imediately he had made a bad mistake. You know, the age old story. But, I really enjoyed the small town aspect of it, where you know everybody and everbody knows everybody's business, the family relationships, the friends. It is a nice, heartwarming story.
