Blue Brigham was barely a man when he first got his chance with the girl he'd loved all his life. He made her laugh, and he made her love, but he couldn't make her stay. Legal wasn't enough for their older woman-younger man relationship, not in a town like theirs, so before he knew it, she'd left town to marry another man her own age and took his heart with her. Ten years later, Harper Haley is back and looking better than ever, but even a rocking body and a smile as sweet as he remembered isn't enough to melt his defenses. She won't have the chance to break his heart a second time. Trouble is, she's staying here in his house since he moved his sister in after her recent divorce, and Harper's not going easy on him. Not even a little bit.
