Jefferson Randolph came back from war a changed man. Before, he was one of the seven infamous Randolph boys, raising hell across the territory. Now, broken and bitter, he spends his days buried in work and his nights struggling not to remember everything he survived?and everyone he left behind.He's ready to close himself off from the world for good...until a chance encounter brings him toe-to-toe with a headstrong schoolteacher more than willing to fight him on every front. Violet Goodwin can tell there's a good man buried beneath that angry armor, and she's not going to give up until Jefferson stops living in the past and starts to see the future he could have?if he's willing to accept he's worthy enough to claim it.
