Summary

I just inherited a fortune in the hometown I swore I'd never set foot in again. There's only one way I can keep it. 
Marry the rancher who broke my heart. 
Keller Thorne was my first everything. Right up until he crushed me the summer we turned eighteen. 
Now I'm back in Wildrose. Broke, divorced, and desperate for a lifeline that'll give my kids a fresh start. Keller's a single parent now too. Older and quieter than the boy I left, and still the best-looking man in this county, which I would appreciate the universe not rubbing in my face. 
I came back for the inheritance, not for him. But Ella, the eccentric bookstore owner who took me in when I had nobody, didn't just leave me a fortune. She decided to do some matchmaking from beyond the grave. 
I have to marry Keller Thorne. Only him. If we don't stay together for a year, I get nothing. 
Suddenly, Keller is doing everything he can to win me and my kids over. Like he actually cares. Like he's aching for this second chance. 
But there's a darker threat looming. Secrets are buried in this town. Someone's been waiting all these years for me to return. And now that I'm here, he's coming for me. 
To keep our family safe, I'll have to trust Keller again. 
I'm just not stupid enough to fall for him twice.
