About the book
When Shelly Brockman walked into his office, Sheriff Dare Westmoreland could almost taste the sweet, steamy passion they’d once shared. Then Shelly informed him he was the father of her son, the unruly preteen he’d arrested that day, and his fantasies turned to fury! Shelly had returned to her hometown in Georgia to save her son from the mean streets of Los Angeles. Getting to know his father would be good for her son. But would being so close to Dare—the only man to make her pulse race—reopen a wounded heart that had never healed? Or, would this be her final chance to win Dare’s love?
