. . . Welcome to Cedar Shores. Your new small-town obsession!
She’s the queen of heartbreak. He’s the one who got away.
Bailey Jones built a career writing love stories about brooding heroes. But in real life she’s never had her own happily ever after.
Not with him.
Rhett Monroe was her first love. The boy who used to toss her into the lake every summer — and the man who walked away without looking back.
Now he’s back — ex–Navy SEAL turned security specialist. Focused. Intense. And he’s not here for the memories.
Because someone is watching Bailey.
Sending messages that feel a little too personal. Too obsessed.
And Rhett is not letting her out of his sight.
He takes her to the one place a stalker won’t find her — Cedar Shores. But for Bailey, being stuck in close quarters with the man she never stopped wanting is far from simple. Especially when Rhett watches her like she’s something worth guarding. Like she’s his.
The tension that used to simmer between them now crackles. Every argument is charged with desire. Every touch lingers. And every heated look dares her to remember how good they could be.
She’s spent her career writing men who would burn the world down for the woman they love.
Turns out… she grew up with one.
Welcome to Cedar Shores — where summer never really ends . . . and neither does first love.
