What if the kindest thing you've ever done almost cost you everything?
An anonymous clause in a will sends Elise back to Haven Island-the place she once knew as the kindest on earth-with one final responsibility: sell her late grandfather's beloved cottage and donate every cent of the proceeds. It should be a simple obligation before returning to the life she's carefully built.
Instead, she comes face-to-face with the one person she never expected to see again.
Oliver, the man who once held her heart, is now a devoted single father raising his young daughter on the island. When unexpected discoveries inside the cottage complicate the sale, Oliver offers to help restore the property. As they work together and plan a last-minute winter festival to unite Haven Island with the neighboring town, old feelings begin to resurface.
With a career opportunity waiting and a long-term boyfriend expecting her home, Elise must decide whether to cling to the life she's planned or embrace the one she left behind.
Sometimes the greatest act of kindness requires the greatest sacrifice and leads you exactly where you're meant to be.
