by Lynette Eason (Author)
After a brush with death due to equipment failure, smokejumper Alexia Allen is ordered to take time off while the incident is under investigation. She makes a last-minute decision to recuperate at her mother's home and attend her high school reunion--despite the fact that all she wanted when she graduated ten years ago was to get the heck out of the town that served as the setting for so much personal misery.
Within hours of arriving home, trouble finds Alexia in the form of an armed intruder, a dead body, and Hunter Graham, a handsome detective who had a crush on her back in high school. It's clear that someone is out to get her, but the conflicts ahead are nothing compared to the ghosts of her past. As she struggles to accept and forgive her family's failings, she must also decide if she can trust Hunter with the secret she's been guarding for the last ten years.
This edge-of-your-seat book from USA Today bestselling author Lynette Eason has a fresh new look for readers who can't get enough of her romantic suspense.
