From the three-million-copy bestselling author, a drama-filled story of artistic passion, loss, and love, set in the British Columbia mountainside.

“Nobody writes angst and joy and hope like Paige Toon.” —Christina Lauren


I had a strange premonition that he was going to ruin me.
And he did. But I ruined him first.

Maddie needs dance like her lungs need air. Or at least, she used to. Until Beau—her dance partner and first love—died in a tragic accident.

Blaming herself for his death, Maddie moves from London to Revelstoke for the summer. Nestled in the Canadian mountains, it’s Beau’s hometown. A place of aqua blue lakes, glacier springs, and unparalleled beauty. In this mountain oasis, Maddie hopes to say goodbye to Beau and rekindle her passion for dance.  

She doesn’t expect Miles. Newly moved back to town to bond with the son he barely knows, Miles' struggle is one she can’t turn away from. Because his son Kai loves dance, and Maddie might be the key to helping them connect. Miles ignites a spark in her she feared was gone. But she can’t—won’t—fall for him. Because they can only have the summer.

Now she must make an impossible choice. One that could ruin her all over again.
