When life shatters yours dreams
Can you ever trust anyone again?
Abbey Farnham knows God loves her but she hasn’t attended
church in years; her Bible is neatly shelved between Grisham
and Homer. Her everyday life changes when her husband divorces
her and she is forced from a life of convenience. After a fifteen-year
absence, she returns to the resort town of Hammill, Minnesota,
and to the Montgomerys, a family once second kin to her, as
the perfect balm to heal. What she doesn’t count on is
a four-day trip that redirects her dismantled life or falling
in love with childhood friend, Fletcher Montgomery, who’s
as darkly handsome as he is moody. No matter how he tries to
gain her trust, she will never reveal her secret of shame.
Fletcher Montgomery, head of Northern Lights Lodge is stunned
and confused when the woman he still secretly loves, returns
to the lodge he now owns. Why has Abbey come back? Why now?
Doesn’t she know the hole she tore in his heart when
she rejected his love years before? He won’t be moved
by her charms, not like he was back then.
Lucinda Collins, Abbey’s bitter and smarmy mother, lives
in a nursing home, apart from Charles, her husband, because
of her Multiple Sclerosis. If she could only find someone to
help her with the plastic bag she received from The Hemlock
Society so she can end her life.
Maxwell Duncan is tired of being a deceitful corporate puppet.
When he reads Pinocchio to a boy in a dental office waiting
room, will it be enough to make him change?
Smokey is a baseball fan who “had a cup of coffee in
the Majors” until his rotator cuff went out. He regrets
the Catholic girl he let walk out of his life fifty years ago.
Can he get Fletcher’s angry heart to soften so "the
kid" doesn’t make the same mistake?
Charles Collins was once a best friend of Wes Montgomery.
Now he spends too much time at the casino. When he receives
a reunion invitation to Cornwall, England, where he was once
a foreign exchange student, he remembers the land of his first
love. It is just the thing he needs to curb his loneliness.
Will it?
With this crew, this is a summer place where you never know, a night under the stars just might change your life.
