When Special Agent Zach Forrester's terrified sister drops her three-year-old daughter into his life, Zach swears he'll do whatever it takes to protect the little girl. So the moment someone threatens to harm the child as a way of getting back at him, Zach flees with Katie to the one safe place he knows--the small Colorado town he'd lived in as a kid. Unfortunately, it's the one place he'd never wanted to revisit, not even in his dreams.

But for Katie's sake, he'll have to face the past. And he'll have to face Dana Hathaway, his high school sweetheart--the only woman he's ever loved.
