Sinopse original:
Preparing for her final year of college, Daisy is crazy busy now that
she’s back at Butternut Lake. She’s helping her mother, Caroline,
run their coffee shop and trying to build a relationship with the
absentee father who’s suddenly reappeared. She never expected to
fall in love with Will, the bad-boy from high school who works at the
local garage. With every passing day she and Will grow closer to each
other . . . and closer to the day they will have to say goodbye. As
summer’s end looms, Will and Daisy face heartbreaking choices that
might tear them apart.
Caroline already has her hands full trying to make ends meet at the coffee shop without having her no-good ex suddenly show up. Now that Jack is back, he’s determined to reconnect with the family he walked out on twenty years ago. But with the bank pounding on her door and Jack’s presence reminding her of the passion they once shared, Caroline’s resolve begins to crumble. As Daisy’s departure looms and her financial worries grow, Caroline just may discover the support she needs . . . in the last place she ever imagined.

Opinião:
2° livro da trilogia Butternut Lake. Eu tive um problema com esta
historia, esta bem escrita, mas o rumo dado pela autora à
protagonista não gostei. Eu deveria ter adorado, porque o
politicamente correcto é dizer o que a autora fez, mas não
concordei em nada. A base desta intriga é o perdão e segundas
oportunidades. Eu nuca faria o que a protagonista fez, e não gostei
quando a autora termina o romance actual da protagonista para
“arranjar” tudo de forma a ficar com o protagonista. Afinal qual
é o meu problema? Bem, o protagonista Jake, foi casado com
Caroline. Casamento tudo menos feliz, ele traiu, jogava, e bebia
muito, e cereja em cima do bolo, abandona-a a ela e à filha pequena
sem dar noticias. Aparece décadas depois, porque um antigo amigo de
bebedeiras e jogatinas lhe deixa uma casa em Butternut. Deixa de
beber e jogar e com a ajuda da filha, que o recebe como o salvador da
pátria, vai tentar reconquistar Caroline. A intriga esta bem
escrita, mas parte de mim detestou tudo. A sério?! Perdoar tudo
aquilo que ele fez?! Comigo não, dai não ter apreciado a intriga.
Nota: 1,5/5
