Coming Home Country

At eighteen, I left my hometown in the rearview mirror, vowing to never return.

Ten years later, my best friend is getting married, and I have to make a choice: set foot back in Rust Canyon, where painful memories of the past lurk around every corner, or let down the only person who's always been there for me.

I convinced myself it would be fine, that I could put my blinders on and make it through a single week.

Except one very important detail wasn't brought to my attention until it was too late. Tucker Grant, the reason for my self-imposed decade-long exile, is the best man to my maid of honor.

I wish I could forget that he'd promised me forever, only to rip the rug out from beneath me when he married another woman. But that teenage heartbreak shattered my heart, and it hasn't been the same since.

Though when the truth comes to light, it has me questioning everything and wondering, can one spark reignite an old flame?
