It's a truth universally acknowledged that a heroine with a love of a good book is in want of her own happy ending...if she lets herself.
Eleanor "Elle" Davidson has avoided going back to her hometown. Out of excuses, she's back home for thirty days to confront the ghosts of her past, including the mother she hasn't spoken to in eighteen years. Soon, Elle discovers that sometimes going back can help you move forward.
In the search for her authentic self, she finds an unexpected passion for the village's handsome veterinarian, Dr. Clayton Owens. Will her feelings for Clayton be enough to free her heart from the prison of her past, or will she do what she's always done...run away?
