This book is a premium first copy, similar to the original but not the original.

Blythe MacTavish misses her husband. Two years after his death and Scotland-bound to attend his sister’s wedding with her five-year-old daughter, she has never felt his absence more. Travelling solo with a child while grief threatens to undo all the progress she has made, she’s taken aback by the actions of a kind stranger somewhere above the Atlantic.After a disappointing end to his rugby career and the death of both his parents two years ago, Sam Keefer was looking forward to being away from the bookstore he inherited but never wanted. A two-week trip to Scotland for his best friend’s wedding was the perfect chance for a reset. Both Blythe and Sam have been living for ghosts. Stuck in limbo after losses that rocked their worlds. But when they find themselves at the same destination wedding, they realize they have a chance to escape real life for a little while. Even if it means breaking their shared rule of never hooking up at a wedding.What starts as a week of no-strings-attached fun ends with two people struggling to let go of what they’d gotten a glimpse of. The one problem with breaking rules is that there are always consequences, and it doesn’t take long before Blythe and Sam are forced to confront them.
