Chasing music and freedom, Shane Knox left Arbor Shores nine years ago and never looked back... until now. With his best friend, Dax, getting married, Shane is coming home to face his past as well as Avery, the girl he left behind.
The second he lays eyes on her, all of his long suppressed feelings come rushing back in a tidal wave of regret. For him, it was never truly over. But is it too late for a second chance?
Despite being bitter over Shane’s abrupt exit, Avery has bigger problems on her hands than drama with her ex. Her family’s hotel, Arbor Shores Resort, is struggling. Financial difficulties have landed the business in prime position for a real estate buyout, which would destroy all Avery and her family have built.
Putting his career on the line, Shane comes up with a plan that could save the resort. But will it be enough to redeem himself with Avery?
Or is it time for him to leave Arbor Shores for good?

“Is that old lighthouse still up at North Point?” he asked.
“It sure is. They closed it to the public several years back, so you can’t get to it by the main gate. You can still
get out to it, but you have to park down a side road and then walk up the coast for about a quarter of a mile.”

Shane looked at her and grinned. “Take a walk with me?”
“You mean, to the lighthouse?”
“I’d love to see it.”
She thought to herself for a moment about all that needed to be done at the resort, but something about taking a
walk up the shore to the abandoned lighthouse with Shane was calling out to her. Plus, she hadn’t seen it
herself in years.

“Wow, it’s even cooler looking now that it’s abandoned,” he said as they grew closer to the lighthouse. “Can you

“I don’t think so. And even if you could, I don’t think it’s a good idea.”
“Chicken?” he challenged her as he started jogging toward it. The lighthouse jetted off into the water on a rocky
base, and the two had to climb those rocks to reach it. Once atop, Shane tried the door, but it was locked. He

“Avery, over here!” she heard him yell from the other side. She met up with him to find he had opened a side
door.
door.
“Shane! What are you doing? We can’t go in there. How did you even get that door open?”
“I pushed.” He grinned. “Go to the top with me? I bet the views are amazing from up there.”
“If we get caught, we are going to get into some serious trouble.”
“Are you always this much fun?” he teased. “What happened to that fearless girl I used to know?”
“She grew up and got responsible. At least I can say that for one of us.” But her comment fell on deaf ears as
Shane disappeared inside. Avery couldn’t help but follow him. The adrenaline of sneaking into the lighthouse

She followed him in and closed the door behind her. A musty smell greeted her as she made her way up the
creaky stairs to try to catch up to Shane, who was halfway to the top.

“Shane!” she hollered up in a soft yell as if someone would hear her. “Wait up, there are cobwebs everywhere!”
“Be careful on these stairs,” he yelled down as he waited for her, allowing her to pass him so she would be in
front of him. As she passed, he put his hands on her waist to steady her, setting off a chain reaction in her body.
He always had a way of making her feel safe. “Here, you go ahead of me so I can catch you if you fall.”

“I’m not going to fall.” She gave him a playful smile, but she was comforted knowing he was behind her.
When they reached the top step, both of their mouths dropped in awe. The view of Lake Michigan from the top
of the watchtower was spectacular. The lake went on for what seemed like an eternity, and the 360-degree
views of the area were stunning. Unable to see across, the massive lake disappeared into an abyss of blue until
it melted into a different shade from the cloudless sky. The watchtower was about ten feet in diameter, with an
opening for the staircase in the middle, making it a tight fit for two people. Avery clung to a brass railing near the
window. She felt Shane come up behind her and wrap his arms around her waist, enveloping her in the
sweetest embrace.
