In The Dandelion by Michelle Leighton, Abi Simmons has come home, but she's just a shadow of the girl who left town nearly 20 years prior. The last thing she expected — or wanted — was to reunite with her first love, Sam Forrester. But that's exactly what she gets. Sam's life is the picture of perfect, well-adjusted happiness from the outside, but Abi soon learns that his smile covers pain she can't see. Sam's wife is dying, and her final wish is that she be able to meet the woman who will love her husband into old age and finish raising their little girl. Abi wants nothing more than to help her old flame and his charming wife, but she's hiding something that will hurt them more than help them, and time to come clean is running out.
