When Kelley Spencer moves back to her hometown of Hopeful with her sister, she hopes desperately to protect sixteen-year-old Madison from the trouble that seemed to find her in Dallas. Almost immediately, a brush with the law reveals that the police chief is none other than Jack Morgan--the man who broke Kelley's heart many years before. He's the last man she thought she'd find still living in Hopeful...and the only man she's ever loved. Jack Morgan wants nothing more than a second chance with Kelley Spencer--and he's not shy about showing it. Their love might have been doomed all those years ago, but nothing's stopping him now. That is, nothing but Kelley's dark secret that might drive Jack to leave her again... this time forever.
