I was a good girl who played by the rules. Except when it came to Davis Montgomery.
A handsome former Marine with a rough touch and a filthy mouth. A man I loved.
But when he didn't ask me to stay, I took it as a sign to leave my small town and chase my dream. What a mistake that turned out to be.
Now, I'm back, running from the flames of my past to find a fresh start. But fresh doesn't always mean easy. Not when I'm now the town outcast. Not when I can't hide my bruises or the baby I'm carrying.
When Davis finds out what happened to me, his protective nature comes out and he does the unthinkable. He moves me onto Runaway Ranch, determined to keep me safe. He says he'll do everything he can to get me back on my feet. But I never expected the deep feelings and scorching attraction between us to come back even stronger.
One night, the embers of our past are rekindled and I remember all the reasons why I've loved him for so long. That one spark gives us back our second chance. But second chances don't come easy, especially when the shadow from my past is lurking. And ready to take back what's his....
