She helped make him a star. Then he chose the spotlight over her. Now he wants the one thing fame could never give him back.

Lexi Wilder knows how quickly everything can disappear.

As the songwriter behind the chart-topping Wilder Sisters, she spent years turning heartbreak into hits while performing alongside her sisters—and falling in love with Luke Wyatt, the talented backup musician who was always there beside her.

Long nights on the road. Stolen moments between shows. Songs that meant more than either of them admitted.

She thought Luke might be her forever.

Then scandal destroyed the Wilder Sisters just as Luke's own career was taking off.

A year later, Luke has everything he once dreamed about. Hit songs. Sold-out shows. A rising career that has made him one of country music's hottest new stars.

And he's never been more miserable.

Because somewhere between the screaming crowds and another lonely hotel room, Luke realized that fame isn't worth much without Lexi beside him.

Now his tour is over, and Luke is coming back to Whistle Cove.

Back to the woman whose songs helped launch his career.

Back to the woman he left behind.

And this time, he wants her back.

But Lexi has spent the past year picking up the pieces of her shattered life while Luke lived the dream they once shared. She hasn't forgotten what they had—or forgiven him for choosing his career when she needed him most.

Luke knows winning back Lexi won't be easy.

Good thing he doesn't plan on leaving without a fight.

Because he already found country gold.

He just didn't realize it was her.

An emotional second-chance romance about first love, life on the road, the price of fame, and a country music star determined to win back the woman he should never have let go.
