Synopsis
Can they face their demons and discover love? Trent Jacobs had everything he wanted until the flash of a muzzle ripped his world apart. Now, he only has guilt. Permanently removed from fieldwork due to questionable events, Trent retires from the FBI. He retreats to the small town of Mill Creek, Idaho, to become the town sheriff. Margaret King knows what it’s like to be alone and isolated. Losing her parents as a child was impossible, but the death of her brother damn near killed her. When a strange van appears on her street and her apartment is broken into, she turns to Trent, the only man she can trust. After Maggie shows up terrified and haunted, Trent’s guilt explodes. She makes him want things he doesn’t deserve, including her. Trent must face his demons to protect her as their past collides with the present. Or risk losing her.
