A veteran amputee, the feisty woman he loves, and the rescue dog depending on them. Jax Carder's body wasn't the only casualty of the explosion that claimed his leg while deployed overseas. The dust had hardly settled before his relationship with Riley, the love of his life, began to implode. He'd been the hero when they met, but fear of being seen as helpless after his injury made him push her away one too many times.
Now facing life alone, he's found his way to the Wounded Warrior Rescue. When Riley shows up in town, they can't seem to stop butting heads long enough to fix what went wrong between them. Riley McCracken is taking one last trip to her late grandmother's home, but this time there won't be any hugs or freshly baked cookies awaiting her. The house she just inherited is as empty as her lonely heart, and the temptation to hide away from her troubles there is very real.
If only her ex hadn't ended up in the same small town. In a perfect world, she and Jax would have a second chance at love. But if they can't find a way to overcome their fears, history is bound to repeat itself. Jax and Riley have to decide if love is worth the risk of opening up and facing those fears together.
