Lane Driscoll has been having nightmares about a dangerous man chasing her. She seeks refuge in beautiful Mystic Creek, where she gets a job working at the local perfume shop. Jonas Sterling is the town psychologist in Mystic Creek. When he encounters his ex-girlfriend, Veneta, working at the perfumery, he can't believe his eyes. Jonas discovers Lane was adopted at the age of three and is now twenty-six years old—the same as Veneta. Lane's always felt like she was missing a part of herself—and now she needs to locate her missing sister. Jonas agrees to help, and a romance blossoms between them as they grow closer on their journey. But when the man from Lane's nightmares shows up in her dreams again, Jonas and Lane realize Veneta may be in grave danger, and their search for Lane's sister turns into a heart-pounding race.
