eBook Description: Abigail McKee vowed revenge. Ethan O'Conner not only lied to her and broke her ten-year-old heart, but also drugged her and then put her on a horrific orphan train. Since then, her life had been nothing but miserable. 14-year-old Ethan had vowed to keep Abby safe. And although he feared he would never see her again by putting her on the train, he fought back the tears with the knowledge that he had kept his promise to Abby the only way he knew how. Now ten years later, Ethan is back in Abby's life as John Cable, Point Reyes Lighthouse's new First Assistant, and only he knows about their past. Will Ethan risk losing Abby again with the truth? And if Abby learns the truth, will she have the courage to let go of her past and follow her heart?

Abby smiled at him. "I said she was the color ribbon in the storm. It's something my mum used to say." She put Mazy down and picked up her lead. "It's getting late. I think we better be getting back. I wouldn't put it past Mercy to send out a search party for us. At this very minute she's probably wondering which cliff I pushed you off of to your early demise," she said, laughing. Her laughter was as easy as a summer breeze and her face had taken on a soft childlike wonder. The combination was intoxicating. It was then as he was about to ask her another question, he realized he still didn't know her name. How could that be? They'd had several fights. She had pointed a loaded gun at him. He had even given her not only flowers--mauled as they may have been--but a dog that she seemed to think the world of. And yet he still only knew her as 'his teacher'. "Seeing that you know my name. And I did give you an incredible dog. I think it's only just that I know you by something other than teacher. Maybe I should call you red?" he teased, easily moving out of her half-hearted swing. "If you must know." "I must ... given Mazy and all," he said, grinning. "My name is Abigail McKee. But I go by Abby." Ethan stopped. His heart was pounding so hard his chest hurt. Could a man's heart explode from beating so hard? Abby ... she said her name was Abby. How many Abby's were there in this world? Abby's with amazing red hair that shimmered like cooper in the sun. Could it be that simple? Could she be his Abby? The Abby he'd searched for in every port and city he'd passed through? Abby turned back and looked at him. "Something wrong?" There she is. Ethan smiled. The girl I thought I'd never see again. A girl who wrapped me around her little finger and stole my young heart in a very short period of time. Her eyes are older, more guarded. But looking deeper, I can still see the striking indigo that's haunted my dreams for the past ten years.
