When Adeline’s husband is murdered, her rags to riches story turns into a nightmare staring those closest to her. After years of careful planning, she finds herself and her not-quite three-year-old son on the run, but a broken-down car leads her to Police Chief Colton Decker’s door.
She wasn’t looking for love, but the townspeople of Creekwood Valley are hard to deny, and their Police Chief is even harder. Before she knows it, she has a job and an apartment, and her son is making friends. They are finding the family they never had. But a threat lurks in the shadows of the past, and Adeline knows the time will come when she’ll have to pack up and run again.
The problem is that Colt has no intention of allowing her to run, and even less intention of allowing her to fight alone. As he works to claim her heart, Adeline’s past collides with the present to threaten their future.
There’s something about a good man in a good town filled with good people, because Adeline decides to stay. Will she survive when her past catches up with her?
