A runaway wife reunites with her estranged husband in coastal Maine, where they solve a crime together and rediscover their love.
She came to the small New England town to escape memories of a marriage gone wrong. But when an attempt is made on her life, heiress Judith Halliday finds herself under the care of her doctor husband once more. Neil Peyton is still just as handsome—and infuriating—as she remembers. He’s also just as demanding, insisting he accompany her as she gets to the bottom of the crime that nearly killed her. Soon the stakes become too high—for Judith is not only fighting for her life, but her renewed feelings for her husband.
