His name was Cole Finlay. He was my best friend, my everything. The boy with the magnetic gold eyes I couldn't resist. But when he broke my heart I ran away, leaving behind all my sweet memories. Years passed and I pretty much convinced myself he was just an infatuation, a bad mistake. But there was always something missing. Now I’m back in town for a funeral, and he's standing on my porch. Cole Finlay eight years later is a force to be reckoned with. Powerful muscles ripple under his shirt, his jaw is square and hard, and his eyes are molten gold.

     Kallie I fell in love with him when I was seven. I scraped my knee, and he helped carry me inside. Our love story was the talk of the town until a woman told everyone she was pregnant with his baby. The only rational solution was to high tail it out of town and never come back.

Jacob Being the sheriff in a small town was never my dream. My father died and my older brother took off, so I had to be the one to look after my mother. I stayed.

I kept my head down and my mind off of the woman who shattered my heart when she ran away. She didn’t give me a chance to explain, it didn’t matter to her then. I didn’t matter. A second chance is never promised, but now that mine is right under my nose, I’m not sure I can take it.
