Boykin writes "the kind of book that makes you want to lock the door, turn off the phone and read every page straight through to the end." The Huffington Post
June, 1947. Charleston is poised to celebrate the biggest wedding in high-society history, the joining of two of the oldest families in the city. Except the bride is nowhere to be found...
Unlike the rest of the debs she grew up with, Vada Hadley doesn't see marrying Justin McLeod as a blessing - she sees it as a life sentence. So when she finds herself one day away from a wedding she doesn't want, she's left with no choice but to run away from the future her parents have so carefully planned for her.
In Round O, South Carolina, Vada finds independence in the unexpected friendships she forms at the boarding house where she stays, and a quiet yet fulfilling courtship with the local diner owner, Frank Darling. For the first time in her life, she finally feels like she's where she's meant to be. But when her dear friend Darby hunts her down, needing help, Vada will have to confront the life she gave up - and decide where her heart truly belongs.
Genre: General Fiction
