Everybody in Fallonโs Landing remembers Quaid OโFallon as the street-tough kid adopted by the tight-knit clan and made into one of their own. Quaidโs spent the last few years working in the Coast Guard Search and Rescue in Alaska, but heโs still got a hint of danger humming under the surfaceโand a heart fiercely loyal to the man who saved him, Rory OโFallon. Thatโs why he had to come back home. What he doesnโt expect is to run into the only person whoโs ever cracked his armor, Cynthia James. His attraction to the single mom has lasted years even though theyโre worlds apart. She loves New York; he loves the River. Sheโs Vogue; heโs Field & Stream. She designs beautiful clothes; his job is fishing people out of dangerous waters. He may be a rough-and-tumble river man, but heโs not about to let a second chance at his dream woman get awayโฆ
Cynthia came home to Fallonโs Landing in defeat after her smooth-talking husband ran her clothing business into the ground and left her with their son to raise. The last thing she needs is another man in her life, no matter how incredibly tempting he is. But Quaidโs always been a fascination to her. Sheโs wondered what those strong arms would feel like wrapped around her, or what ways a man that bold might have of pleasing a woman. Heโs all wrong for her, but once she shuts out the rest of the world and tastes Quaidโs hungry kisses, all she can think about is just how right he feelsโฆ
