Reflections of yesterday: Simon Canfield and Angie Robinson were in love at seventeen, but Simon's wealthy parents paid Angie and her father to leave town. Now, twelve years later, Angie's got a fiance and a successful business of her own. She returns home to Groves Point, South Carolina, to repay the money and reclaim her family pride ... and discovers that her feelings for Simon haven't changed. But Simon is bitter over her betrayal. Can she make him see the truth?

Yesterday's hero: When marine biologist Leah Talmadge gets the chance of a lifetime--an expedition to study the rare whales off the Diamantina Islands--she can't refuse. Even if it means temporarily marrying world-famous photographer Cain Hawkins. The governor of the islands won't allow two unmarried people to live together, and they both desperately want to document the whales. So why not? Yet an invisible link exists between Cain and Leah ... and both of them know they'll never be the same!
