Publisher's Synopsis
Eva Crossgun left everything and everyone she grew up with to chase her dreams of a better life. When faced with a shocking betrayal she drops everything and heads to the one person she knows will believe her story, but he just so happens to be her childhood enemy. Guarded at first due to their rocky past, she quickly learns that the man protecting her is nothing like the teen she knew.
Lucas Carver has worked hard to distance himself from the rightfully earned title of "Troublemaker" he wore like a badge of honor growing up. Now a former cop, he has made it his mission to find his missing father-something that seems almost impossible-until a former classmate shows up holding the final piece of the puzzle. Determined to protect her, he never expected the girl he tormented in school to capture his interest-or to return it. Caught between a life she never imagined having and the life she fought to build, Eva struggles to know where she belongs. The longer she stays, the less she wants to leave-even if it means giving up the very dream she fought to make reality.
