The only way to get what she wants is to let go of everything she thinks she knows.
I never planned to live my life in a trailer in a tiny mountain town. Funny how divorce changes your plans for you.
And I never planned to fall in love again. After Jack, I figured I was better off alone.
But Connor Charles, with his dark red hair and glowering good looks, was as compelling as he was frightening, and I knew I should stay away from him. Especially if the rumors were true.
The police were interested in Connor ... but the more I got to know him, the more I realized ...
So was I.
