What this book is about
Maybell Parish inherits a ramshackle mountain resort from a great-aunt she barely knew — along with the stipulation that she share it with Wesley Kowalczyk, the quiet, steady caretaker who has loved her from a careful distance. Hogle's second novel is a slow-burn contemporary romance with cozy atmosphere, genuine warmth, and two people discovering that being seen is scarier than being overlooked.
