The Moments We Chose Love

ANDIE: Nine years ago, I ran for my life. Since then, I've slowly rebuilt what was taken from me. But it’s risky to let my roots grow too deep. Anyone I let close could pay the price if my past catches up with me.

Then Cooper moves in next door.

The devastatingly handsome sheriff and his teenage son aren’t supposed to become part of my carefully ordered world. Yet between shared meals, stolen glances, and the way they make room for me in their lives, I find myself craving the home and family I swore wasn’t in the cards.

Except, the moment Cooper learns who I really am, he'll have every reason to walk away.

COOPER: Coming home to Swift Rivers was supposed to be about family: helping my father recover and giving my son a chance to start over. Falling for my neighbor wasn't part of the plan.

Andie is beautiful, guarded, and hiding something. But the more time my son and I spend with her, the more I see the caring woman behind the cautious smiles—the one determined to shoulder her burdens alone. Now all I want is a future that includes her forever at my side.

When the shadows she once escaped creep into Swift Rivers, protecting her becomes the only thing that matters.

As danger closes in and the truth comes to light, we'll have to decide whether our scars and secrets are reasons to walk away—or reasons to finally choose love and stay.
