She strolled into town like a ghost from my past.

My high school love, the one who tore me apart and ran.

I own the ranch outside this place now, a billionaire cowboy with no time for games.

She’s still gorgeous, still dangerous, and I keep my distance.

Until I see her daughter—ten years old, my eyes, my blood.

She kept her from me. I should hate her, but I don’t.

I’ll seduce her, make her fall, then walk away with our kid.

That’s the plan. But her touch, her voice—they pull me back to what we were.

Revenge might break me more than she ever did.
