Report copyright infringementby Chapel Cove Romances (Author), Marion Ueckermann (Author)What she most needed was right there in front of her all along. At the age of thirteen, Clarise Aylward and her two best friends each pen a wish list of things they want to achieve. Deciding to bury a tin containing their life goals, the friends vow to unearth the metal box once they've all turned forty. But as the decades pass and each girl chases her dreams, the lists are forgotten. Heath Brock has been in love with Clarise for over twenty-seven years and counting. As a young man, he'd plucked up the courage to ask her out on a Valentine's date, but the couple succumbed to pent-up passions, sending Clarise dashing for the other side of the country. Years after Clarise's sudden departure, Heath serves as youth pastor. He'd held out hope of Clarise's return, but buries his feelings for his childhood sweetheart when he learns she's married. Almost penniless, divorced, and with nowhere to go, Clarise returns home to Chapel Cove, her future uncertain. She's approaching forty with her dreams in tatters. When old feelings resurface, Clarise wonders whether she's ever really fallen out of love with Heath. What's the man of God to do when his old flame returns, seemingly to stay? With Clarise back in town, Heath is determined not to repeat past mistakes, but if he has anything to say about it, never again will he lose the only woman he's ever loved. Welcome to Chapel Cove, Oregon, where life begins at forty. As their fortieth birthdays loom, three childhood friends return unexpectedly to their home town. Stunning coastline, a harbor against life's storms, and a welcoming community await them. Hurt by challenges, disappointments, and failures; reminded of their unfulfilled hopes and dreams, they're offered a fresh start. And, if they're brave enough to accept it, a second chance at love. Will they allow God to safely anchor them in their hearts' home, or will doubt and uncertainty drive them to repeat their old mistakes?
