WHAT HAPPENED TO HANNAH
To save her own life, Hannah Benson fled her hometown as a teenager. She's never looked back, not even to find out what happened to the mother and sister she left behind. Twenty years later, the past comes calling when the town sheriff, Grady SteadmanâHannah's high school sweetheart, phones her with life-changing news: her mother and sister have both died, and she's the sole relative of her fifteen-year-old niece.
Hannah had become used to the idea of going it alone, but she can't shake her responsibility for her young niece. Returning home to bitter memories and devastating secrets, Hannah has to find a way to take on this new challenge without ruining livesâor risking her own sanity. And when her painful memories of this small town become mingled with the new, happier memories she's creating with her nieceâand the rekindled feelings she has for Gradyâ Hannah finds out once and for all if she's strong enough to save her own life one more time.
