Description

In a small town, rumours can make or break a reputation. But after thirty years can the truth heal a broken heart

After an enforced end to her tumultuous teenage love story, Aubree's life was so simple-she married Fletcher, had two children, worked in the successful family business and lived in the small town she grew up in.

But thirty years later she's divorced, her kid's lives are imploding and her ex-husband and his father have placed the family into the centre of major scandal and the ruthless gossip mill.

As if that wasn't enough, her old love now rides back into town with a score to settle, igniting even more rumours. The whole town seems to know everything about her before she does.

But as past and present collide, will the truth win out-and maybe even rekindled love, too
