“Another home run for Tif Marcelo! This time as she takes us behind the scenes of a family-run romantic couples resort on the eve of its grand reopening—complete with sibling rivalry, long-held family secrets, and a slow simmering can’t-take-your-eyes-off-the-page romance between two family friends determined to try to keep a lid on the burn. With her signature style and deftly drawn characters and setting, Marcelo takes us on a storytelling journey of family and love and second chances and explores them with a fresh new lens, reminding us how it feels to escape—and more importantly—how it feels to finally come home.” —Amy Impellizzeri, award-winning author of I Know How This Ends
