---Currently revising chapters, new version coming soon.--- She came home to close a chapter. He never stopped wondering what could've been. When Sam returns to her late father's house to prepare it for sale, the last thing she expects is to run into Jesse-the blue-collar heartbreaker from her college days. Now a rugged cementer working land rigs, Jesse's unexpected reappearance stirs up old memories and dangerous new feelings. As sparks fly between them, Sam is pulled between her carefully constructed future and the pull of the past she thought she'd outgrown. But when Jesse's messy breakup with his ex threatens to unravel everything, Sam is forced to decide: will she walk away again-or finally fight for something real? Perfect for fans of slow-burn second chances, small-town drama, and fierce heroines who fight for what they want-flour-dusted hands and all.
