Publisher's Synopsis
An Innocent Mistake Just Might End Her Life
Pine Valley, Tennessee's biggest flirt, Wade McKenzie, has devoted himself to keeping his family's legacy alive. A decision that cost him the love of his life when he refused to abandon the restaurant that means so much to him. When Jude breezes back into Pine Valley years later, one look at her has him second guessing everything. Photographer Jude Metcalf had no intention of ever returning to her hometown, but when she accidentally captures a drug-deal gone bad on film, she has nowhere else to run. Her troubled past makes trusting anyone impossible-even the police. So she swallows her pride and asks for help from the one person she's ever depended on. The man she left broken hearted when she had no choice but to leave Pine Valley and her abusive father behind. When Jude's attacked, Wade secures protection for her at Crossroads Mountain Retreat-a place for wounded law enforcement and veterans to heal. People are in town looking for Jude, and Wade knows one wrong move will blow her cover. He left her side once before, and he won't make the same mistake again. Even if it costs him his life.
