Description

Run.

That's what Alexandra Langley does when things get hard. She creates distance, and this time an entire ocean felt like the only way to escape the heartbreak Ben Shaw caused. Now she's back in Bluefield for the first time in seven years, and every memory she tried to outrun comes racing back. Forgetting him was easy when she lived across the world. But being back in the same small town as him? Not a chance.

For seven years, Ben Shaw has lived in survival mode. Devoted single dad. Steadfast son. Reliable brother. A lawyer who puts everyone else first. He carries every title with pride, but somewhere along the way, he lost the part of himself that responsibility didn't define. Starting over in Bluefield was supposed to be a fresh start for him and his son. But then Alex walks back into his life, and suddenly the past he's tried to bury of a love he lost is everywhere he turns.

One weekend was all it took for them to build something real, but one choice shattered it all. And now, the spark between them is as undeniable as ever, and far more dangerous. Because what tore them apart all those years ago isn't finished with them yet, and the ghosts they've both tried to forget aren't ready to let go.

Two broken hearts.

Seven years to move on.

One second chance they might not survive.
