Coming home means facing all her fears...
Amy Finley had plenty of reasons to ditch her hometown as a teen, not the least of which was local bad boy Sam Reyes. He left without a word, taking another girl with him. The news crushed Amy, who saw Sam as her only reprieve from her dysfunctional family. Then, there was The Incident in the woods one night when a stranger assaulted her and she never told anyone. A decade later, she returns home just long enough to make amends with her siblings, but Sam has a lot to say about her plans. He's still just as devastating to Amy's peace of mind. She'd heard that he was Heartache's new sheriff. She hadn't heard he was caring for a newborn son... alone.
Samuel Reyes needs to close the book on a case that has haunted him for years, so he shouldn't be distracted by Amy's return. But things turn complicated when it becomes obvious she's hiding something that could put away the town stalker for good. As threats surface against Sam's infant son, demanding he drop his pursuit of evidence for the trial, Sam won't back down. He tells himself he needs Amy's trust for the sake of the case, but the more time he spends with her, the more he realizes how much he craves a second chance...at forever.
