Sandra did all the right things growing up, but after she left home for college her choices always went wrong, especially choosing to marry Trent Hurst. Now, she's left him for the second and final time, but she has nowhere to go except to the old family homeplace in rural Cub Creek, Virginia. Her aunt is going on a trip and needs someone to house sit and dog sit. For now, it will be a good place to hide for a few weeks while she's trying to elude Trent and make him her ex.

But knowing Trent, it won't be that easy.

​

When Sandra finally arrives in Cub Creek, she discovers the old house has gotten shabby, the garden is woefully overgrown, and her aunt's beloved dog, Honey, is missing.   

As Sandra settles into the old house that she hasn't visited since she was a child—and never planned to return to—powerful secrets and hurtful memories are unearthed, but this may be her final chance to regain her self-respect, make peace with her family, and discover what she's truly made of—if she will stand and fight for what she wants this time instead of running yet again.

​

This time, she's fighting for herself, her future, and more.
