Choosing solitude over dreams, she’s built a wall around her heart, avoiding any real connections. No matter what she does, though, Jo can’t outrun the haunting memories holding her back.
Suddenly forced to return to the home she’s secretly longed for, and to her old flame, Sheriff's Deputy Colton Alder, Jo realizes that burying her desires won’t be as easy anymore. Under Colton’s irritatingly persistent charm, she can feel her defenses crumbling, and must choose between protecting her heart or tearing down the wall that surrounds it. But, with her past still threatening her future, loss and pain are still only a heartbeat away.
