Live Again

She's guarded. He's smitten.

If she won't risk her heart, she'll break his.

I want my life back.

After losing my soulmate, I claimed grief as my closest companion. For seven years I lived only for sleep and the sweetness of dreams that carried me back to all I lost.

Now I'm waking up.

Before I know it, I'm making bucket lists and checking items off one by one including the one thing I never thought I could: renovating my country home that I had once hoped to fill with children.

And selling it.

Then Rhys Griffin saunters through my front door, a toolbelt slung low on his lean hips, and my fragile heart thuds in my chest.

Straight-talking, compassionate, and oh so freaking easy on the eyes, Rhys challenges me to imagine more.

But I watched my whole world crumble once.

And I can't risk a repeat performance.

Rebecca Cleaver is the second chance I never expected.

She's a firecracker but the sadness in her eyes rips me apart. Of all the women I've met since I lost my wife, why does my heart settle on the one I may not be able to hold?

I understand her suffering.

Intimately.

If she lets me in, I'll take us both out of the dark.
