Jake Murphy has been raising his six-year-old daughter in Fortune Bay with the help of his extended family ever since his wife left five years ago.

It’s always been safer that way. But maintaining her distance is almost impossible in a town like Fortune Bay, and slowly she begins to make new friends—her first real friends—and meets the man and family she’s always wished for but never thought she could have. But will the people of Fortune Bay still accept her when they find out who she really is? Welcome to Fortune Bay
