Brynn Harlow left town in disgrace, her only sin protecting the man she loved from the ultimate betrayal. Adam Good knew the meaning of heartache. He'd suffered through it for years after Brynn ripped his heart out and left him with only bitter memories and unanswered questions. Now, circumstances have brought Brynn home and she's assigned an arson case alongside Adam. The two must overcome their past to work together and find an arsonist who killed Adam's brother. But along with her son, Brynn has brought home a secret so powerful it could destroy both men she loves, and herself.

This is not okay

Trigger warning for those who have experience sexual assault.

Crime story about rape from the perspective of the victim with a lot of slut shaming thrown in. While writer condemns these actions, she still uses them far too casually to drag out the tension and give a reason to keep the main to characters apart. If you overlook that the best that can be said about the story is that it is average. Standard issue romance plot line with a judgmental small town, a struggling woman, and the rekindling young love.
