Return to Edisto, Paperback

It was a long trip back to Edisto Island, South Carolina, and the beach house that shaped so much of Mary Helen Avery's early life. Now her mind flashed between anger and hurt over the difficult situation she'd left behind at the job she loved. Was she doing the right thing to leave? Should she have stayed to fight? She hoped at the quiet, beloved island she knew so well, she'd find the answers she needed and peace from all this turmoil.

J.T.'s heart took a familiar lurch when he saw the car with New Jersey plates parked at the Avery's beach house. Even after ten years, the memory of Mary Helen Avery still tormented him. Finding her on the porch weeping lit old fires he thought long dead. Was he a fool to hope for something more between them with all their problems of the past? Probably so, but if she stayed long enough, he'd find one more chance to try.
