He was my first love.
Now hes back to haunt me.
They say you never forget your first… the first kiss, the first touch, the first heartbreak.
For Presley Collins, that first was Rygaard Garrison, her brothers best friend, the boy who stole her heart and then vanished without a trace.
Years later, shes buried the memories deep, trying to forget the summer that shattered her world.
But Rygaard is back in Cedar Creek, hotter and more dangerous than she remembers.
Hes no longer the innocent boy she fell for, but a man shrouded in secrets, and his presence stirs up feelings Presley thought shed long extinguished.
He might be her brothers best friend, but the forbidden spark between them still burns.
The girl he left behind is gone, replaced by a woman hardened by his absence.
Shes determined to resist him, but Rygaard has other plans.
Hes back to claim what was always his, even if it means facing the ghosts of their past and igniting a fire that could consume them both.
