Steph’s finally getting her life back on track after years of struggle and heartache. Her kids are doing well, she has a new job she loves, and she has great friends that she knows she can rely on. Things are looking up! That is, until he rolls back into town. Seventeen years after he first broke her heart, Riley walks back into her life, determined to rekindle what they once had. Despite some initial misgivings, Steph has a hard time resisting the man–especially once he reveals the truth about what really happened all those years ago. Now she’s wondering if, maybe, they actually can find their way back to each other.

Riley’s made mistakes. A lot of them. He’s spent years wallowing in shame and self-pity, running from a past that he can’t escape–until one day he decides enough is enough. Now he’s home in Llyn Lakes and looking to make amends with all of the people he’s hurt. Number one on that list is the woman he’s never been able to forget. Though he knows he doesn’t deserve it, he’s desperate for a second chance with Steph ... but it turns out she has secrets of her own, and this time she just may be the one to break him.
