The last time Brody Clark left the Rivers, she walked away from her lifeāher foolish dreams, her few friends, and the secrets she'd kept from everyone. For ten years she'd told herself there was nothing in her past she cared aboutānot the family who'd given her a home or the one girl she never stopped thinking about. But now sheās back as part of the new medevac flight crew, for at least as long as it takes to finally bury her ghosts.
Val Valentine, DVM, planned on a big city boutique vet practice with high profile clients, easy hours, and lucrative profits. All until the man who was more father to her than her own asks for her help, and she ends up back in the backwater where all she has are bad memories.
Brody figures cutting her ties to the past would be a hell of a lot easier if she could only avoid the woman sheās never been able to forget. Since Val never even knew she was alive back in high school, that shouldnāt be too hard now. When their lives collide, both women discover what might have been is closer than they think.
