What do you do when destiny isn't turning out as planned? For Sean Doran, you make a course correction . . . and go home. USA Today bestselling author Juliette Fay delivers a richly-drawn page-turner with humor, heart, and hope for finding oneself when all the tables have turned. Perfect for fans of Jonathan Tropper and Marisa de los Santos. Sean Doran has spent twenty years as a nurse in Third World war zones and natural disaster areas, fully embracing what he'd always felt was his purpose in life: to do as much good as possible with whatever time he has. With a 50% chance of carrying the gene for Huntington's Disease like his mother, he's never married or had children, and has kept his relationships casual. But when Sean begins to question the basis for his life's work and burnout sets in, he is reluctantly drawn back home to Massachusetts. There he discovers that his steely elderly aunt, drama-loving sister, and quirky nephew are having a little natural disaster of their own. Sean soon finds himself parenting a misunderstood boy, falling in love with a woman from his past ... and realizing that the bonds of love and loyalty might just rewrite what he once thought he knew about destiny.
