Nine years ago, Rachel Wells died. At least, that’s the
official story put out by the government. The real
breakdown is this: After her parents testified against a
mob boss, seventeen-year-old Rachel went into the Federal
Witness Protection Program, where she learned to live with
lies and looking over her shoulder. Now that the danger
has passed, Rachel returns to Lake Como, the last place
she remembers being happy, in hopes she can find the
carefree, loving person she used to be.
But time has changed the Lake as much as it's changed
Rachel. The small community isn't how she remembers it—and
neither is Sam Hairston. He’s grown into one fine, sensual
man. He’s also the law, and Rachel has had enough of that
to last her a lifetime. Still something about Sam draws
her out—the way he looks after her, holds her, waits for
her. And after one passionate night, Sam makes it clear:
He wants all of Rachel—no more secrets, no more holding
back—or nothing at all. Now, Rachel has to decide if she’s
strong enough to let go of the past and open her heart to
the future, wherever it leads…
