Shane McGuire and Becky Epperson have a history. They might have had much more, but the murders of two close friends killed their shot at forever before it had a chance to breathe. Nine years after Shane broke Becky's heart, they find their way home to Northstar and wonder if it is coincidence or fate that has brought them back at the same time. Becky is tired of pretending she doesn't still love him, but that doesn't mean she's willing to give him a second chance. Shane has many mistakes to mend, but he is prepared to do whatever it takes because the things in life worth fighting for rarely come easy.
