Mortified after her semester abroad is cut short, Amelia Christiansen returns to Deep Haven, certain she isn’t brave enough for the adventures she’s dreamed of. The last thing she expects is for the man who broke her heart to cross the Atlantic and beg forgiveness.
Heir to a European hotel dynasty, Roark St. John has trekked from one exotic locale to another, haunted by tragedy and the expectations that accompany his last name. Amelia is the first woman to give him a reason to stop running. He’ll do anything for a second chance—even contend with Amelia’s old flame, who is intent on sending Roark packing.
While one surprise after another leaves Amelia reeling, Roark’s continued presence only highlights the questions pursuing her. Like him, is she running from the life God has called her to? Could finding her new place mean leaving home behind?

Summary
Double trouble. Amelia Christiansen has it. After returning home prematurely from what was to have been a year abroad, Amelia finds herself vigorously pursued by her high school sweetheart, Seth Turnquist and face¬toface with a man who has travelled across an ocean to find her, Roark St. John. Amelia has known Seth her entire life; he is a safe choice, loved and admired by family and friends; plus, he insists that they have always belonged together, forever, in Deep Haven. Roark, on the other hand, has traveled the world, but has a way of drawing Amelia to himself like no one she has ever known. Except, he broke her heart in Europe and she is not sure that he takes their relationship seriously, until he literally moves to Deep Haven, insisting that she give \"them\" a second chance. Upon one condition, Roark must find a way to be truthful with Amelia without revealing all of his secrets at one time. And he has billions of them. Vowing to give both men a chance, in the end Amelia must reexamine her own heart; first of all, envisioning God's plan for her life and then determining which, if either man, is a part of that future. God in His faithfulness, and rather dramatically, makes His choice very plain. Even though Amelia learns how fragile life itself can really be. Enjoy this beautifully written addition to the acclaimed Christiansen family series.
