The Year the Wind Brought You Home: When the Dandelions Returned

Four-year-old Maeannie arrived at the Xander estate with no memory of where she came from and no family to call her own.
Taken in by the formidable Josephine Xander, she was raised among old stone halls, sun-drenched gardens, and endless summers in the heart of Dreainia. And at the centre of that world was Caleb Xander-the brilliant, teasing heir who was always there to wipe away her tears, steal the last bite from her plate, and make her feel like she belonged.
At sixteen, Maeannie falls in love with him.
She keeps that love hidden for three years, treasuring every smile and every careless touch, never daring to hope that Caleb could see her as anything more than the girl he helped raise.
But when Caleb finally looks at her with different eyes, he loves with a depth that is both breathtaking and dangerous. Behind his easy laughter and gentle devotion lies a man willing to sacrifice everything-his inheritance, his future, and even his own life-to keep Maeannie safe.
Because the Xander family is built on secrets.
After Josephine's death, Maeannie uncovers a devastating truth: the woman who gave her a home was also responsible for the deaths of her parents.
As buried memories resurface and powerful enemies close in, Caleb is forced to make an impossible choice. Then tragedy strikes, and the world is told that Caleb Xander is dead.
For one long year, Maeannie learns what it means to live with a shattered heart.
Until the wind carries him back to her.
