Sheâs been wronged. And sheâs hurting.
Can he help her wipe the slate clean and escape her past?
From his first meeting with organic farmer Christine Turner on a rain-slicked highway, Police Chief Dale Lewis is intrigued. But Oak Hillâs newest resident wants nothing to do with men in generalâand lawmen in particular. Which is fine by him. Troubled women are trouble.
Yet when Dale discovers sheâs been wronged, his passion for justice compels him to help. As their paths begin to cross, Daleâs five-year-old daughter falls hard for Christine. And heâs not far behind.
Still, romance is a risk for a woman whoâs been hurt and a man whoâs been burned. But in Americaâs heartland, might they find the courage to take a second chance on love?
In this RITA Award finalist book, bestselling author Irene Hannon once again captivates readers with a small-town-America story that celebrates the power of love to transform lives.
