Letting go of the past is never
easy…
Jenna Olsen has spent the last four years trying to move on from the heartache that tore her world apart, but when Cole Sullivan suddenly shows up back in town all of those feelings come flooding back…and even some new ones she didn’t know were possible.
Leaving town all those years ago was necessary, but now that Cole finally has a handle on his life he decides to return home to his family, friends, and the woman he just can’t forget.
Coming back home though comes with its costs, and Cole ultimately has to decide…will he be able to fight his inner demons to keep Jenna in his life, or will the chance of hurting her again be too much to risk?

My eyes scan across the
page of my current read, and I tug on my bottom lip with my teeth. It’s a sexy
book, scorching to be quite honest, to the point where I’m almost embarrassed
to be reading it. But that’s not what’s got me tugging on my lip and
practically squirming in my lounge chair. I may be reading about a drop-dead
sexy widowed rancher and his new love interest, but all I see in my mind is
Cole.
Oh my goodness. Cole.
The things my subconscious
came up with last night in my dreams were enough make a prostitute blush. I
should be ashamed for even thinking such things about him, even though I wasn’t
in a controlled state of mind, but I am so far from shameful it’s ridiculous.
The feel of his hands gliding up my legs, my hips, my stomach, my breasts; the
taste of his mouth; and the way my skin beaded wherever his lips landed—it was
all so real that I woke up slightly disappointed.
Okay, I
was very disappointed.
“Whatcha reading?”
I jump at the sound of
Cole’s deep voice, causing my floppy sun hat to fall over my eyes.
“Sorry,” Cole apologizes.
“I didn’t mean to scare you. Again.” He bends down next to me and grabs my
book. I must’ve dropped it when he startled me. “Taken by the Rancher,” he
reads aloud, and I feel my cheeks flame with heat at his knowing grin. “Sounds
like a real page turner.”
I take the book from his
outstretched hand and adjust my red bikini before I relax back onto the lounge
chair. Cole takes the seat next to me.
“Is this what you’re
going to do all day?” he asks me, and I turn to look at him. His head is
resting against the back of the lounge chair, his face turned to the sun as he
soaks up the rays. “Veg out and read your porn?”
My jaw falls and I slap
him with the book. “It is not porn, thank you very much.”
He laughs and tilts his
head toward me, his eyes bright with amusement. “Do they have sex?”
I lift my chin with a very
Scarlett O’Hara defiance. “Yes, they make love.”
“A lot?” Cole asks with a
raised brow and a grin that twists my insides.
“Define a lot,” I say.
He laughs and shakes his
head. “You’ve got porn.”
