Synopsis

"Ten years ago, Kylie McKay suffered a brutal assault that ended her athletic career and sent her running from everything--and everyone--she loved. Now she's back in Kendall Falls, trying to rebuild her life and keep her eye on the future. But someone from her past has other plans... When Kylie's construction site is vandalized, the man Kylie once left brokenhearted steps in. Detective Chase Manning has no doubt that Kylie's life is in danger, and he'll do anything to protect the woman he once loved--even if it means ignoring the desire that ignites between them--and to catch a killer, before he returns to finish what he started..."--P. [4] of cover.
