'Find where you belong and make that place your own...'

Tanner has spent his whole life moving from place to place, belonging nowhere. So when his dying grandmother reveals the name and location of the father he never knew, he plans to visit Asheboro to lay the past to rest, then move on - just as he always has.

Kaitlyn knows exactly where she belongs. In Asheboro, she's built a life for herself and her kids that she's proud of, especially after the turmoil of divorce. But when she meets lone wolf Tanner, she can't help but feel something has been missing until now.

Jasper will never belong again. He had everything - and he lost it all. Now with only his old dog Arlo for company, he lives quietly, haunted by the tragic accident that took place decades before.

Three strangers' worlds are about to collide, changing the trajectory of all their lives. Because some paths cross, some merge, and others guide you home...

From the much-loved bestselling author of The Notebook comes a brand-new emotional and powerful novel about the journeys we take and those who touch our hearts along the way.
