She swore never to speak to him again even if he was her first and only love.

Karly can't refuse her brother anything, even if she promised to check on Thad, the guy who left town without a word ten years ago. She's been waiting a long time for him to tell her why he disappeared. He owes her an explanation. Heck, he owes her a lot more, but he can never know the secret she's holding in her heart.

Thad wants to be left alone. Memories from Afghanistan haunt his days, and nightmares keep him awake at night. The last thing he wants is to train a dog again. The last one died saving his life. Yet, Karly needs help, and he's never been able to refuse Karly anything.

If you love a small town, second-chance romance stories layered with emotion, suspense, and two people willing to risk it all for love, escape to Elkridge, a town filled with everyday heroes, and one who is hiding a secret.
