A gripping
standalone adult contemporary romance about finding yourself while
taking a second chance at your first love...
Dakota Nakos was
always the resilient, strong-willed achiever. But when her father
dies and she's entrusted with the family's casino, she feels
vulnerable, scared, and more than a little emotional --not exactly
the best time to see an old lover she's never really gotten over.
Dakota once meant
the world to Shane Garrity. Then suddenly he left town to train as a
U.S. Marshal, and their love for each other crashed into a memory.
Now he's come home for her father's funeral, and one look at the girl
he left behind stirs up both memories and regrets, and reignites a
fire he feared he'd lost forever.
Dakota may be the
same driven girl she always was, but she's also changed in ways
neither could have anticipated. She's not just a young woman
searching for own identity in the Native American community in which
she was raised, but one questioning her new life outside her father's
shadow. Above all she wonders if Shane can push past her weakened
defenses to rekindle what they once had, or whether the intense blaze
between them will ultimately reduce her heart to ashes.
EXCERPT
She
closed her eyes on a sharp breath, looking soft and vulnerable.

I couldn’t help myself, my fingers left her chair and glided up her
arms to her neck. Her breaths released from her lips in short pants
and I considered touching my mouth to hers.
Would
she let me? Would she want me to?
“Yes,”
she whispered, the heat of her breaths warming the tiny sliver of air
still lingering between us. “But that’s in the past. We had our
chance and I . . . I got over you. So let’s leave it there.”
My
stomach completely flipped over. “You got over me?”
I
studied her lips edge to edge, and they trembled in response. She was
so not over me.
I
didn’t know what the hell was driving me. I just knew I didn’t
like hearing those words. Not one damn bit.
“You
got over me?” I growled as my fingers gripped the nape of her neck.
My
lips brushed the line of her jaw and she shivered.
“Shane,
don’t. Please,” she mumbled, her hands at my chest. “You’ll
just leave again and I can’t . . . I can’t . . .”
She
sounded so helpless and sad. For the first time she was allowing me
to see exactly what she might have been feeling, might’ve gone
through five years ago. She sounded wrecked—as wrecked as I had
been.
My
lips trailed to her ear. “Angel.
