WHEN THE STAKES ARE HIGH... Mattie Grayson-Avery returns home from her honeymoon ready to start fresh with her new husband, Dallas attorney, Trenton Avery. She's excited about the future, about giving her five-year-old daughter a father figure, about building a future with Trenton. Everything is perfect, until her presumed-dead husband, Navy SEAL, Ford Grayson gives her the shock of her life. THE ONLY WAY TO WIN... A prisoner of war for five long years, Ford thought of nothing but Mattie and the child he'd never met. He's ached for Mattie. Her sexy smile, her drown-in-me green eyes and lush curves haunted his dreams and offered him hope against the odds. IS BY PLAYING DIRTY... Ford isn't above playing dirty to get what he wants and he wants his wife. But Trenton isn't about to step aside without a fight. Caught in the middle, between the past and the present, Mattie faces her toughest choice yet-the memories of the past or the possibilities of the future.
