Around the Next Bend (Raspberry Ridge #4)

Mertie Jardine came home because of her parents’ death, but she has secrets of her own. On a dark night, long ago, she gave away something precious, and the only person who knows lives in Raspberry Ridge. She can’t stay long or the public life she’s built for herself as a Christian speaker and conference leader could come crashing down.

Garnet Irving remembers that dark night well.

He remembers the scared, hurting girl even better. She’s somewhere under the cool and collected exterior of the woman who’s back in town and he’d like to find her. He never stopped wishing she could be his. Of course that’s impossible now, but he wouldn’t mind reconnecting and finding out what’s around the next bend for them.
