In the second book of The Lighthouse Trilogy we follow Charity, the third and youngest child of the Henley family. As a teen, in book one, she was sweet and lovable with a bit of a rebellious streak. Now as a grown woman fresh out of college, she must face some troubles from her past as she forges her way in an adult world. Charity has decided that she wants nothing to do with men. According to her they only cause trouble and interfere with a girl's life. But unfortunately she runs into Tucker, an old flame from high school who is quite persistent. Just as she is trying to figure out her feelings for him, she meets Gabe, a childhood friend, whom she hasn't seen in over two years. The sexual tension is apparent to them but she fights it for unexplained reasons. As Charity tries to sort out her feelings for these two men, she must deal with adversity in her family's wine business. Someone is trying to stop her father from taking his best wine to the annual wine competition. Or is someone simply trying to prevent Charity from choosing a man?
