THE AUTHOR'S CUT The day the earth tried to swallow LA, Alexandra "Sandy" Wheaton dropped her iced mocha in the parking lot of the emergency services dispatch office. Her day went downhill from there. Seven years later, hidden away in a small mountain town in Wyoming, Sandy is still haunted by the day that changed her life forever. When Ryan McGee left home in a storm of controversy sixteen years earlier, he never expected to return to the land he loved. But an old feud between his family and the MacKays has escalated to a dangerous level, and he answers his brother's call for help, putting his quest to find someone who once saved his life on hold. Sandy and Ryan nearly collide on a mountain road and are instantly drawn to one another by a potent force that won't be refused. But each has a history of lost love they haven't been ready to leave behind yet aren't ready to share with the other. If they can't let go of their pasts, how will this new attraction survive their future? "re-released with some mature language"
