BLURB:

After the unbearable grief of losing her mom drives her to leave, an unfortunate diagnosis forces Emiliana Diaz back to the town she grew up in a decade later. She trades a successful art career in Manhattan for the sleepy ranch town of Windhaven, Vermont, filled with people and memories she fought so hard to forget. She’s sick, scared and running out of time. When things don’t seem like they can get any worse, she is faced with another problem.

That problem’s name is Alexander Cruz, the brooding local bar owner, her brother’s best friend, and the boy whose heart she broke all those years ago. After the brutal fallout of their almost-love story turning to ash, Emiliana wants nothing to do with him, while Alex has spent the last 10 years dreaming of seeing her again.

The fire between them is impossible to ignore and what begins as resentment reignited, slowly unravels into something far more dangerous—hope.

But a second chance at love doesn’t come easy when you’re facing the unthinkable. Will it be enough to put back the pieces of her broken heart?
