The Return

About this book

My, my...how quickly time had flown. For Ashley Stewart, it had passed by in a flash. It hardly seemed possible that thirteen years had gone by since she fled Oklahoma on the heels of a nasty divorce, returning to Louisiana to regain her sanity and raise her child. She had settled into a life of quiet contentment, running the family business and hanging out with old friends, rekindling old relationships while remembering what about them she loved most. She rediscovered romance when she married Jack, the one man who understood her—and loved her anyway. Ashley felt safe within the boundaries of her hometown, believing that nothing could ever hurt her again. However, her security was a smokescreen, a delicate facade of which Ashley was completely unaware. She thought she was protected—untouchable in her happy little world—but she was wrong. Little did she know of the danger that lurked just beyond the trees.
