Wild Hearts, Steady Hands
Growing up in a small town, Lily Bradstock learned early that wings were meant for flying. Fear of being trapped drove her to run whenever life felt too permanent, too real. At eighteen, her mother's tragic death shattered what was left of her world-and she threw her engagement ring at the feet of her high school sweetheart before fleeing as far and fast as she could.
Seventeen years later, Aunt Meridith's death brings Lily back to Stockford with a inheritance that comes with strings attached: live in the old house for twelve months, or lose it forever. She thinks she can endure anything for a year-until she discovers that some things never change.
Like Aaron Saddler still living next door, now a single father raising his eight-year-old daughter with the same steady hands that once promised Lily forever. Like the way her heart still skips when he smiles. Like the small-town gossip mill that remembers exactly why she left and doubts she has what it takes to stay.
Time may have passed, but the chemistry between them burns hotter than ever. Aaron's willing to risk his heart again for the woman who shattered it. But Lily's spent seventeen years running from love, and old habits die hard.
Can they repair what they broke all those years ago? Will Lily finally learn that home isn't a cage-it's where your heart chooses to land? Or will her restless wings carry her away again, leaving Aaron to pick up the pieces of a twice-broken heart?
Some second chances are worth the risk of flying too close to the sun.
