The key to a mother's love is in her past . . .
Sage Danvers has spent a lifetime running from a past too painful to confront: the mother who seemed to shut her out, the father who openly resented her and the heartache of a love that was bitterly betrayed.
Now, her mother, Liz, lies critically ill in hospital and, longing to reconcile the past, implores her estranged daughter to return. As Liz opens up her heart through her diaries, Sage discovers the mother she never knew - a loving woman in a loveless marriage, torn between duty and passion. Sage is inexorably drawn into the seething emotions of love and betrayal that these pages so painfully expose.
As she reads on, Sage discovers she's moving dangerously close to the truth about her very existence. And only when she can confront her own fears will she be free to unlock her deepest desires . . .
