- Synopsis
- "Heartwarming and intense . . . a tale that resonates with the meaning of unconditional love. " - Romantic Times. "White's prose is lyrical. " - Booklist. Caroline Collier is a woman bogged down in the harsh realities of a life barely lived. Stress from her all-consuming job as an accountant has given her panic attacks, forcing her to take a leave of absence from work. And though her chances of relaxing in the presence of her overbearing, perfect mother are slim, she joins her at the family's vacation home in the mountains of North Carolina. But the serene beauty of Lake Ophelia cannot heal Caroline's heart. Memories of her younger brother, who died when she was seventeen, continue to haunt her. And the tension between Caroline and her mother still simmers. Only their neighbors, the husband and daughter of one of Caroline's childhood friends, seem able to penetrate her cool reserve, giving Caroline the courage to face her biggest fears - and dive head first into life.
