Sarah Brennan has had it with the noise, chaos, and heartbreak of city life. Determined to launch her new business—and reclaim her mojo—she returns to the small town she once fled. But her very first client knocks the breath right out of her. Rick Lansing. The boy next door who never spared her more than a glance in high school… and the man who now looks at her like she’s his every temptation.
Rick’s silence all those years ago cost him more than he ever admitted. Now Sarah is back, fierce, beautiful, and refusing to see past the job at hand. He won’t let her leave. Not this time. Fate has handed him a second chance, and he plans to use every weapon—his charm, his persistence, his touch—to win the only woman he’s ever wanted.
He’s waited years for this chance… but can passion heal the past, or will history break them all over again?
~EXCERPT~
“You’re the answer to my prayers, Sarah Rose.”
Sarah almost stumbled as her world stuttered to a halt. Seconds ticked away. You’re the answer to my prayers. She’d wanted him to say those words back in high school, longed for them so much she’d chosen not to date anyone. She’d gone solo to her senior prom, hoping against hope for one last chance.
Sarah looked up into his face, wishing those words meant what she’d hoped for all those years ago and mentally berating her heart for the reminder.
Focused on tamping down ancient emotions, she almost missed the emotion in Rick’s gaze. Raw. Needy. All covered up so fast, she couldn’t be sure if she saw it or imagined it.
He cleared his throat, then swallowed. “I, umm, need someone to help me sort through everything here, figure out what’s worth selling and what should be trashed.”
“Oh.” Disappointment hit her so hard, she almost stepped back, barely stopping herself. Of course, he meant the estate. That’s why he’d asked her to come.
