A place I vowed never to return to after a disastrous one-night stand. Unfortunately, skipping your best friend’s wedding was not an option... moreCOMING SOON! Release date June 21, 2018!!

The last place I ever expected to land, though, was in the small town of Billingsley, Texas. A place I vowed never to return to after a disastrous one-night stand. Unfortunately, skipping your best friend’s wedding was not an option. Neither was avoiding that one man who managed to turn my world upside down in a single evening nearly a year ago. I’d never been a runner. I'd never been one to hide. But sometimes, it’s necessary... less

I never wanted the limelight. The only thing I wanted was Conley Logan. When words failed to express my feelings for Conley, I relied on music instead. But our love song ended before it even began, before I'd even told her how I truly felt. As a result, I watched Conley leave hand-in-hand with my bandmate instead of me. Not wanting the fight that would break up the band, I made a choice. I lived with it every day, knowing it was nobody's fault but my own. I've moved on... moreI never wanted the limelight.

Not wanting the fight that would break up the band, I made a choice. I lived with it every day, knowing it was nobody's fault but my own. I've moved on. I'm content with my small-town life, running a bar. But now Conley is back, forcing me to face the music.

The only thing that has changed: I'm not letting her get away this time without a fight. less
