Emotions are pushed to the limit in this riveting story of one woman's attempt to deal with loves past and present. After almost losing her fourth child in an accident at work, Claire Danner Crispin has given up her career as a nationally renowned glassblower at the request of her husband, Jason. Weighed down by guilt, she devotes all her time to her family - but worries she is losing her own identity in the process. But when Lock Dixon asks Claire to help organise the annual Nantucket Children's Charity Gala, she is given a new sense of purpose. She is asked in part because her school sweetheart, Max West, is now a world-famous rock star and it?s hoped she will persuade him to play at the event. But Lock also wants her to produce a piece of art to raise money for the charity - which means defying her husband's request to stop work. And as she spends more time with Lock, she realises a growing attraction between them which neither can ignore'
