.Lex knows exactly where the good people of Blackwater think he belongs. In prison, right alongside his no-good, murdering father. It's one reason he's spent the last two years living rough in the woods outside of town. The other? Thea-granddaughter of the man who rescued him from an irreparably broken home.
The exact moment Lex noticed Thea had grown into a woman, he was packed off to the military. Lex gets it. He knows better than anyone he tends to destroy everything he touches.
Now, ten years later, a mysterious summons brings Lex back to civilization, though the thought of watching Thea marry someone else ignites a savage instinct he dares not unleash.
At first, Thea doesn't recognize the grizzled, mountain of muscle who breaks into her grandfather's house in the dead of night. Until his rusty, familiar voice emerges from all that unkempt hair. Lex, the boy who broke her heart when he walked out of her life.
For a while, she had everything she thought she wanted: a successful medical career, a doctor fiancé, a comfortable future. With a single, hopeless diagnosis, she dropped everything-including the fiancé-to come home. And into the arms of the boy who has matured into a man who makes her body tremble with desire, even as her brain warns her to guard her heart.
Forever is waiting just on the other side of the emotional walls towering between them. Walls that love could leap...if it's strong enough to shed the weight of their pasts.
