"Financier Grace Preston did fourteen-hour days in New York City. She didn't do small towns in Australia. Not since she'd fled almost twenty years ago. But when a personal trauma sent her home--with a secret she couldn't reveal--the last person she needed was her first love. Local cop Cameron Jakowski had loved Grace for most of his life. But he wanted marriage and family and she didn't. He was small town, while she was big city--and lived half a world away. But for now she was right here--a walking, talking temptation. One he managed to avoid ... until he made one mistake. He kissed her. And reawakened the passion that could change their lives ... forever"--Publisher.

Lucy's head is filled with visions of white lace and white picket fences. The last thing Brant needs is the walking, talking temptation that is Lucy. He may be out of his army fatigues but he still carries his demons. He's a loner, not the marrying kind that the hometown sweetheart deserves. So why can't he stop wanting her?"--Page 4 of cover.
