Sometimes all you need is a second chance...

Anna Morelli's life looked picture perfect--until her husband had an affair with the nanny. She's ready to file for divorce when a freak accident claims his life, and she's forced to act the grieving widow. Trouble is, she's not much of an actress. She has to get away--somewhere her meddling family won't think to find her. Somewhere she has room to breathe. That place is Two Willows Winery, the new home of her former best friend and ex-lover, Jace. Anna just prays their childhood friendship is strong enough that he won't turn her away.

Jace never expected to see Anna at his door. He'd been the son of the help; she was the Morelli princess, and their affair was doomed from the start. He's never forgiven her for breaking his heart--or marrying someone else. But he can't turn her away. Not when she needs a roof over her children's heads, and some peace of mind. He knows firsthand how strong her father's influence can be, and her need to break away.

But their painful history isn't forgotten, and as old secrets are finally revealed, their love is rekindled. Can Jace let go of his grudge and forgive her? Can she trust him again? Or are their wounds too deep to ever truly heal?
