My long-lost high school sweetheart just inherited a fortune in our hometown.
The catch? She has to marry me.
I always knew Delaney Mercer was meant for bigger things than me. I was born to take over my family’s ranch, not run off to the city. That’s why I broke her heart back then. Because I loved her too much to let her stay.
Now Delaney’s back. A broke single mom who still shines brighter than any woman I’ve known. I’m a single parent too. A lot older and far more cynical than that idealistic cowboy she used to love.
Delaney’s here for a lifeline that could help her start over. But Ella — the eccentric bookstore owner who once took Delaney in — didn’t just leave money. She decided to do some matchmaking from beyond the grave.
Delaney has to marry me. Only me. If we don’t stay together for a year, she’ll get nothing.
I didn’t ask for this crazy set-up, but I’m all too eager to agree. This could be my chance to win her back, and I’m selfish enough to take it. I can’t lose her again.
But there’s a bigger threat looming. A killer who’s been waiting all these years for Delaney to return. And now that she’s home, he won’t stop until he claims her.
Over my dead body.
