Dallas Gustafson thought she’d seen Culpepper, Wyoming in her rearview mirror for the last time, but when her father tells her he needs her to come home while he’s on his death bed, she sucks up her pride and complies. Back in the town where she grew up with people who teased and tormented her, she finds herself face-to-face with the only boy she ever loved. Austin James still carries a torch for the girl he loved as a boy, even though he’s almost thirty. When she comes into his bar one summer night, he can’t let her leave without telling her how he feels. When her father dies a short time later, he knows he has to do whatever it takes to get her to stay in Culpepper permanently. Will he be able to convince her they were meant to be together? Or will they both spend the rest of their lives without love?
