He never stopped loving her. She never stopped regretting walking away.

Sixteen years ago, Rainy Cross walked away from the only man she ever loved.

​

She told herself it was the right decision. That they were too young. That someday the ache would fade.

​

It never did.

​

Now she's back in Hollow Point, raising her ten-year-old son and trying to build a quiet life. The last person she expects to see is Detective Jase Turner—the boy who once owned her heart and the man she's never been able to forget.

​

Jase spent sixteen years wondering what happened to the girl who vanished without a goodbye. He built a life, became a father, survived heartbreak, and convinced himself some wounds never healed.

​

Then Rainy walks back into his world.

​

This time, he's not letting her go.

​

As old feelings ignite and two families slowly become one, a murder investigation rocks their small Georgia town. A killer is closing in, secrets refuse to stay buried, and the woman Jase has loved since he was fourteen is suddenly in the crosshairs of a dangerous obsession.

​

He's already lost Rainy once.

​

He'll burn the world down before he loses her again.
