Why does he look at me like that?
It’s been five years since I lost him, but I’ve finally rebuilt my life—on my own terms. I run a business I love, I’m the mayor of Sycamore Ridge, and for the first time in a long time, my life feels steady. Then a stranger walks into town and shatters the calm I fought so hard for. Why does he look at me like that?

Why does she make me feel like I’ve finally come home?
I needed a break—from the stage, the spotlight, and the stalker who won’t let me go. Sycamore Ridge was supposed to be a quiet stop, a place to disappear for a while. Then I meet Kacie, and suddenly leaving doesn’t feel so easy. Why does she make me feel like I’ve finally come home?

I won’t be ignored—not this time.
I’ve crossed continents for him. Watched him fall for women who don’t deserve him. But this one? She’ll be his last mistake. They think they’re safe in that sleepy small town. He belongs to me. I won’t be ignored—not this time.
