A hidden journal. A deadly secret. And a summer where everything she believed was a lie.

Monique Lamond isn't merely starting over after her husband's death -- she's discovering their entire life together was built on deception.

And to make matters worse? Her retirement savings have vanished without a trace. Her grown daughters are keeping explosive secrets of their own. Her charming beach house rental is suddenly beyond her budget... and someone is leaving threatening notes on her door.

Change is coming. Whether she's ready or not.

When Monique finds a hidden journal in her kitchen and uncovers a decades-old murder mystery that still haunts the town, she's expecting to solve a stranger's tragedy... until the clues lead directly to her gruff landlord Ben, a man the locals whisper is a killer but who makes her heart race in ways she thought were long past.

And in unraveling the truth about what really happened on those cliffs so long ago, she might just discover that her late husband's betrayal runs deeper than she ever imagined -- and that someone in this picturesque coastal town will do anything to keep the past buried.

Find refuge at the seaside café in Maine, where the coffee is strong, the ocean views are spectacular, and second chances come when you least expect them.
