Sometimes freedom feels like a bus ticket south. Lucy Harper thought marrying a wild-hearted drifter would fill the emptiness inside her—but three years later, she’s working herself raw to keep up with Garrett’s dreams, while he lounges in luxury and laughs behind her back. When a public betrayal shatters her last illusions, Lucy finally finds the courage to walk away, selling her home and chasing rumors of a gentler life in Savannah. But the past is never truly gone—and Garrett’s secrets may cost her more than heartbreak. Can Lucy outrun the ghosts of her old life, or will love’s final twist pull her under for good?
