Fifteen years ago, the worst night of her life led to Sutton Rausch calling it quits on her relationship with Lane Lawless.

Now a paramedic, Sutton's world is once again flipped upside when Lane is shot and nearly dies. Old feelings she's spent years trying to bury are dragged back to the surface. When her home is broken into and she narrowly escapes, Lane's is the first place she runs for help.

His brush with death put a lot of things into perspective for the county sheriff. Letting Sutton go had been the worst mistake of Lane's life, and when she moves in with him, he sees it as his chance to repair what broke between them.

The longer they live together, the closer they get. Sutton is reminded of everything she loves about Lane—especially the soft center beneath his broody, overprotective exterior. Lane realizes how much he missed Sutton's sunshine in his life.

But not everyone is happy they're rekindling their old romance, and they'll do anything to drive a wedge between Sutton and Lane.

Lane will stop at nothing to keep Sutton safe and find who's targeting them. So far, every threat has merely been a warning shot, but the next may shatter their second chance for good.
