Twenty-eight year old Jess Morgan, a merchandise executive, takes a leave of absence to travel to Destiny Falls to be with her mother, Nora. Jess has been living in Toronto and traveling extensively throughout the world as a shoe buyer for a retail store. Fourteen years has passed since Jess has called Destiny Falls her home. Riddled with sadness and painful memories of losing her father and fiancée, while lacking the support from her mother, they have become somewhat estranged. Now her step father, and object of the estrangement, has passed and Jess is needed by her mother for support and to try to repair their own relationship. Jess is surprised when she is met at the airport by the gorgeous and rugged Adam Wright, the object of a long ago crush in high school. Adam is her best friend Molly's cousin which makes it difficult avoiding constant contact with him. Becoming physically attracted to each other develops into an obstacle with Jess facing the day she must return to Toronto and to her life. As they fall desperately in love with each other, Adam's secret tragic loss only draws Jess closer. Overcoming her feelings of desertion and previous uneasiness with her mother gives Jess the peace she has desired. But when asked to marry Adam and again make Destiny Falls her home, Jess is torn and feels backed into a corner.

WHERE SHE BELONGS is a very emotional and heartfelt story of broken relationships and painful memories. Finding where she truly belongs is a heartwarming lesson for Jess in revealing the true meaning of love and the ability to forgive. The story is very well written and the passion as well as pain the characters feel is clearly felt by the reader. I thoroughly enjoyed this beautiful story of love and finding oneself in the process.
