Jocelyn Larsen returns to Virginia for the first time since she was a little girl to oversee repairs on her family's old river house. It feels like it's been at least that long since she followed her heart rather than a carefully laid plan. With room to breathe and time to think, she hopes for the chance to reflect on a life she's uncertain she still wants for herself. When she is reunited with Jack, her childhood bully, her intentions to relax and recenter herself are threatened by feelings she is resolved to get under control. He might have changed, but her determination to see all of her hard work through to the end has not.Jack Abrams is a contractor in Farnham, Virginia along the Rappahannock River, where he was born and raised. His life is far from what he imagined it would be a year earlier. In fact, most days, he feels as transient as the houseboat that he calls home. Ungrounded, detached, and at risk of drifting out to sea. But when Jocelyn, his childhood crush, unexpectedly renters his life, her light delivers hope of guiding him back to solid ground once again. As the space between Jocelyn and Jack grows smaller, and the need to rediscover one another grows stronger, they must both decide which life they want; the one they built for themselves, or the one that they built together.
