His fingers ran through the hair just behind my ear and I shivered.

How did he remember exactly where to touch me after all this time? Because he was Mason. Because this was the kid who had done research on how to make a woman come before our first time because he hadn't wanted me to be disappointed.

"I'm not asking you for more than you're ready for. I'm back, okay? I'm here. Whatever you want, however you want..."

My brain was telling me I was being an idiot for believing he wouldn't break my heart again. My heart was trying to remind me it hadn't been his fault he'd left. And my body? My body was starting to melt into his touch, wondering if after all this time he'd still do that thing with his tongue...

Ten years ago, he left me sitting in a park with no explanation. You can imagine my surprise when, out of the blue, he comes to my rescue in a small-town bar. Why is he back? Where has he been? And why do I still care?

Mason

Ten years ago, I broke her heart and I couldn't tell her why. When the dangers from my past come back to haunt her, it's my worst nightmares come true. Ten years ago, I left to keep her safe. This time, I'm staying even if it might kill me.
