Get ready for small towns stirred by mystery and desire in the heart-pumping sixth story in the Eden series . . .

For four years Vera Gallagher's life was anything but normal and she refused to remember the years before that.

The past is a painful wound and life is fragile . . . Her mother taught her that. Now, she's determined not to waste a moment of her newfound freedom.

Mateo Eden's handsome. Charming. Witty. And he loves his family the way Vera loves-with her whole heart.

Some could consider her crush on Mateo Eden wasted time. Or call her a fool for loving a man who hasn't shown her a crumb of interest. Still, to Vera, it's Mateo or nothing.

Maybe he'll never notice her. Maybe she's just too damaged to find that normal life she desperately craves. Maybe her secrets will always keep them apart. But Vera will love him anyway. Whether Mateo realizes it or not.
