After more than two decades of marriage, he knew this woman inside and out. So why did he so often miss the mark about pleasing her? Why couldn't he make his wife happy?
"I'm sorry for the flash of temper," Ali said quietly. "I shouldn't have embarrassed us both in front of my friends."

He accepted the apology with a shrug. "So how badly did I screw up? Are you going to call it quits again?"
"No, I'm not going to call it quits again," she parroted, a snippy note in her tone. "That said, I have to ask. What in the world were you thinking, Mac? You are a federal court judge! You can't walk away from that to run a restaurant."

Working to maintain his patience, he spoke in a conciliatory tone. "Actually, I don't want to run a restaurant. That's your dream."

Married for more than twenty years, and with her children out of the nest, Ali Timberlake has come to Eternity Springs alone. She's looking for answers to heartbreaking questions and searching for something that's missing deep within herself. Taking a lease on the Bristlecone Cafe' in pursuit of a lifelong dream, Ali feels revitalized as she becomes part of this charming mountain town. But a big piece of her is still back in Denver with her husband, Mac, a successful judge--and a man who isn't going to let the woman he loves leave without a fight.

When Mac shows up in Eternity Springs--sexy, seductive, and determined to win his wife back--he experiences the wonder of the place that has given Ali such feelings of happiness and belonging. He wants that for her, but even more, he wants that with her. Ali has found a special place for her heart. But is there still enough room left in that heart for him?
