Return to the Lake House by Elise Darcy

In the shadow of the Scottish mountains, the past is never far behind…

Jake Campbell-Ross has walked away from a high-flying corporate career. Haunted by an accident in Scotland last Christmas, he has left everything behind, hoping for a fresh start. Teaching in a tough inner-city school, he has a sense of purpose far from the life he once knew.
Faye, a dedicated teacher, is raising her daughter on her own. After a painful breakup up with her ex, Faye is determined to keep relationships at arms-length. When she meets the new trainee teacher, a handsome man with a haunted past, her resolve begins to crumble. But is Jake here to stay?
Marcus is trying to come to terms with the loss of his sister. He knows Jake blames him for what happened that fateful day on the Cairngorm Mountains. Their friendship is in tatters. But when circumstances force Jake to return to Scotland, Marcus unexpectedly joins him.
Will the tranquillity of The Highlands help them find peace and heal their friendship? Will Jake return to Faye, the woman he is falling in love with? Or will new revelations about what really happened that day change the course of their lives forever…
