In a town that worships its sheriff, everyone knows Peter Wells as the Golden Boy—upright, untouchable, and perfect in uniform. Only Lachlan Sterling knows the truth.
Lachlan is the town doctor, newly married, and trying to make it home when flashing blue lights pull him over on a dark rural highway.
What should be a routine traffic stop turns into something far more dangerous and intimate—because Pete has always known how to take what he wants, and Lachlan has never learned how to say no.
Their history stretches back to childhood: shared cribs, stolen moments, and a devastating attempt to let go.
In the shadows of cornfields and behind the glare of patrol lights, they collide again—power, desire, and devotion tangled in ways neither of them has ever escaped.
