One-time town hellion Rob Fallon fled Timberlake under a cloud of mystery nine years ago, and now he’s resurfaced to turn his grandmother’s old Victorian home into a fancy office complex.

But it won’t happen under Mary Sweeney’s watch. She and Rob have a history she’d rather forget, and because the charming old house is the only home she’s ever known, she is desperate to save it from Rob’s clutches. Besides, despite Rob’s not-so-subtle pull on her emotions, how can she trust him with her heart when he is hell-bent on breaking it again?
