She's building the future she's always wanted. But the past is about to change everything.

Leila Monahan is ready to start a family—on her own terms. After breaking off her engagement, she takes a DNA test, hoping to learn more about her medical history for her future children. She never expected to uncover a missing twin brother... or to come face-to-face with her first love, Sawyer Lafferty, back in town with an eight-year-old daughter.

Sawyer loved Leila, but her desire to get married—at nineteen!—sent him running. He wanted an education and opportunities first, but those, and any future with Leila, vanished with the unexpected arrival of his baby girl. Now a single dad with full custody, he's come home to manage Wren's new therapeutic riding stable and rebuild his life.

Leila is gutted that Sawyer had a child—with someone else. But little Piper quickly captures her heart, and when Sawyer shares the circumstances of his marriage, their old spark flares back to life. Is it enough to sustain them, especially as more questions arise about Leila's mysterious history? Or will the secrets and lies surrounding them douse their flame forever?
