Contemporary Romance. Humiliated and heartbroken after her cheating husband's sex video goes viral, celebrity chef Madeline Durand retreats to her sleepy, secluded hometown of Shelter Bay, Oregon, where she hopes to find distraction by helping her grandmother turn the family farm into a restaurant. In the process, she reconnects with a former flame, Navy SEAL medic Lucas Chaffee, who's struggling with his own personal issues. With its small-town setting and sympathetic characters, this 3rd book in the Shelter Bay series may appeal to fans of Robyn Carr's Virgin River novels, another series in which emotionally wounded women find second chances at love with military men.
