Her past and love are on a collision course…
Nell Ambrose has tried hard to make up for her misspent youth. She put herself through college, cut all ties with those trying to bring her down, and built a new life for herself in the small town of Hazel Green.
She’s made smart choices, except for one. Falling in love with a man with political aspirations breaks every rule.
Leo Pomeroy has money, power, and good looks. He knows what he wants in life and he wants Nell. It isn't simply the sizzling chemistry between them, it's the woman under the carefully constructed facade who tugs at his heart.
When her past comes calling, their love will face its biggest challenge yet. Will Nell let Leo in and fight for the life they've begun to build...or will she run again?
