Since the Day We Left (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798992553819)

After her Manhattan career implodes, Wendi Parker returns to Hadley Cove with her rescue dog, Max, and last of her savings to open The Painted Shell-an art store now weeks away from closing its doors forever.

Miles Dalton arrives in town after his father's Alzheimer's worsens, never expecting to meet a shop owner whose dog inexplicably adores his dad. Neither realizes their connection began decades ago, when a grieving boy received a "magic" shell from a kindhearted girl.

As their romance blooms, disaster strikes, forcing Miles to confront his deepest fear while Wendi faces losing everything.

When the fallout settles, will their shared past be enough to bring them together-or will it tear them apart for good?
