Wounded during an undercover assignment, he returns home after two decades to heal, only to discover a second chance with his first love.
CHASE LONDON
I’ve lived and breathed duty to my country my entire adult life.
But times change, especially when a bullet with my name on it narrowly misses my spinal cord.
I’m back home and it’s time for a new purpose.
The name on the referral from my doc hits me harder than any bullet ever could.
I mean, how many Astrids can there be in Pineville?
ASTRID JOHANSSON
My days are filled with patients and much-needed patience to deal with my soon-to-be teenage son.
And my nights are full of family, friends, and now a new home on Pineville Mountain.
Then the surprise of a lifetime shows up in a burly, broody blast from my past…the man I gifted my virginity to and broke my heart all in the same week.
When lightning strikes twice on a stormy night nearly twenty years later, will I be able to finally forgive him when I learn the truth of his disappearance all those years ago?
And will I be able to believe him when he tells me he wants a shot at forever?
