He was my first love. The one who promised he'd come back...

Ten years ago, Jake Montgomery walked away and took my heart with him.

He promised he'd return.

He never did.

Now he's back in our small hometown... married, with a family of his own, and looking at me like the years between us never happened.

The last thing I need is to face the man who shattered my heart.

I came home for one reason: to rebuild my life, finalize my divorce, and keep my past buried where it belongs.

But in a small town, secrets never stay hidden.

When my soon-to-be ex-husband storms into a crowded bar screaming my name, everything I've fought to protect unravels in an instant. And Jake witnesses every painful second.

Now the walls I've spent years building are beginning to crumble.

Old feelings refuse to stay buried.

Long-hidden truths are coming to light.

And I'm forced to ask myself whether the greatest love of my life was really lost... or simply waiting for us to find our way back.

Sometimes the promises that break us are the very ones that lead us home.
