After five years in a coma, he woke up to find he’d lost everything; his career, parents, fiancée and daughter. Feeling empty, broken and lost, he now has to face reality. The regrets, guilt and grief but mostly how he failed Ophelia.

They have never met and Rayne hates her. After two months of struggling and feeling a failure, Jules moves them to her family’s lake house in Luna Harbour. Their arrival disturbs Keane’s peace and solitude. The little girl and her bunny unsettles him but they surprisingly connect and he’s so good with her. There’s a spark between him and Jules and he’s fascinated by her calming and understanding ways. Is it a coincidence or fate they have ended up as neighbours.A slow burn relationship as lots of issues to overcome for both of them. It was lovely how they both gradually open up. I loved the letters he wrote to Ophelia, the yoga sessions with Julesand cooking with Rayne. Be prepared because the kite incident and the revelations about her sister are heartbreaking. Can she push past his barriers and get to know the real man underneath?Will he forgive himself and figure out how to change and be the man for her? Can he find the music again when it’s all mixed up with his guilt, loss and memories?This author has such a talent for writing emotional stories and this one will definitely pull at your heartstrings. I found I had to stop reading every so often to allow myself a moment before continuing. Regardless of his past, I felt Keane fully deserved to find love and a family with Jules and Rayne. A stunning read which I fully recommend.
