Everything Luke Conner once wanted from life is slipping away. Ryan Connelly wishes she could be the miracle he needs, but her own heart is still in tatters... and he has ties to the man who broke it.
Ryan and Luke have taught together for four years now, and she's stubbornly ignored the flicker of attraction between them. His friendship-whatever remains of it-with her ex is a complication she doesn't need, but when their colleagues continue to harass him over two murders that happened a decade ago, she can't stay silent anymore.
Ryan's unexpected offer of friendship is a lifeline Luke desperately needs. As he grabs on to it, that spark of attraction flares into something far stronger. Suddenly, Luke finds himself staring at the future he thought was lost to him. But will it last when long-buried secrets are uncovered?
