Will Traverse and Libby Jeffries are two people who share a horrible past. After trying to make a life for himself away from Hope Springs, Will's wife leaves him and takes his son back to the place he never wants to set foot in again, Hope Springs. After ten years, his ex-wife is dead and he finds himself a single father. He returns home to redeem himself of the crime that still holds him prisoner by trying to find the real criminal, and try to be a father to a son who hates him. He soon runs into the cause of all of his "problems", Libby Jeffries. Libby has been held prisoner herself for not having the courage to put Will behind bars all those years ago after she witnessed him leaving the scene of the crime and is still terrified that he'll come back and finish what he started...with her. Soon she finds herself falling in love with Will's son and decides to put the past behind her enough for the love of a little boy who has done nothing wrong. Soon she finds herself doubting what she believed to be true all those years ago. Will and Libby find themselves falling in love, despite all of the obsticles in their way; however, there is someone who has been living among the town of Hope Springs who knows a lot more than they're letting on...and soon there is another crime much too similar to the last one that lands Will in the hot spot...again.

I have read this book myself at least four times and it is still on my bookshelf today. All I can say is...read it for yourself.

Will Travers left Hope Springs ten years ago, accused of a crime he didn't commit. He tried to make a life for himself and his young wife far, far away. But his wife wanted more, and left him for greener pastures. Now he's raising his son on his own, and he realizes there's no better place to do that than Hope Springs. Even if it means facing Libby Jefferies again. Especially if it means facing Libby Jefferies. She was the only "witness" to his alleged crime.

But Libby is not at all pleased to see him. Particularly when a series of "accidents" begins to occur. But this time Will needs her on his side. She's the only person who can help him make enough sense of the past to allow him to give his son a future. And, ironically, that future now includes Libby.
