"Stacy Scott made my solid ground quake. I thought I had left heartache behind in Rockwell, but fate has a way of catching up. In beach town Knotsville, I found solace and love with Natalie, a beautiful and free-spirited tourist who had returned to seek refuge. But our bliss was short-lived.

Natalie's past came back to haunt us, in the form of Max - her ruthless and powerful ex-husband. He'll stop at nothing to reclaim her, and I'm the only one standing in his way.

As Max's fixation intensified and he continued his quest to destroy me, I realized I must protect Natalie at all costs. But where can we hide? My business, my reputation - everything I built - was under attack.

Desperate, I turn to my hometown of Rockwell and the friends I left behind: Stacy and David. Drew even, despite our differences. Together, we forge a plan to shield Natalie from Max's wrath. But facing Stacy again brought up old feelings and regrets.

Can I overcome my past to save the woman I love? Or will Max's relentless pursuit tear us apart? I thought I knew what love was, but Natalie makes me want to fight for it. This time, I won't back down."
