Synopsis

My life was supposed to be simple.

Grow old on my family’s farm with my high school sweetheart. A few dogs, a bunch of kids. We had a plan.

I’d serve my country. She’d go to college. And then, we’d build our forever.

Four years in, forever together.

But life doesn’t always go as planned.

Now, I can’t even bring myself to step foot in the town I once loved. Heart Springs feels more like a ghost of the life I lost, a place filled with memories I’d rather forget. I’m an honorably discharged veteran, barely holding it together. Every day is a battle, and I’m just trying to make it to the next.

Then she shows up.

Georgia Rose.

A woman who doesn’t belong in my world.

Her sleek car and polished city-girl charm clash violently with my rough edges and the wreckage of who I used to be. She’s infuriating, too put-together for a man like me, and the sneer on her lips tells me she doesn’t think much of me either.

I don’t want anything to do with her.

But then she speaks the words that bring my world to a screeching halt.

Now, I have a choice. Face the ghosts of my past, or walk away and lose my chance at something I never thought I’d have again.

Can I take on the challenge she’s thrown in my lap? Or will the scars of my past keep me from the future I once dreamed of?
