Sent away at sixteen, Maggie Dawes could think only of the friends and family she left behind . . . until she met Bryce Trickett. Bryce showed her how much there was to love about the wind-swept beach town and introduced her to photography, a passion that would define the rest of her life.

As they count down the last days of the season together, she tells him the story of another Christmas, decades earlier--and the love that set her on a course she never could have imagined.
