There's a choice in everything I do, and that one choice can change my life forever. Falling in love with Lacey Evans was a choice I didn't even have to make four years ago. One look at her and she had my heart. I had the ring. I was ready for my forever, but when she was given the opportunity to chase a dream, she didn't choose me. She left town without a word. I didn't get a choice. I didn't even get to say goodbye. After two years away, she shows up at my father's funeral and tells me she's back for good. Now I'm faced with the realization that although I'm hurt, confused, and frustrated seeing her again, I'm also still in love with her. All I want, all I've ever wanted is her, but there's only so much heartache I can take before I break. And when Lacey fractures my heart with another crushing blow, I'm not sure I'm strong enough to withstand the pain this time. Leaving was once her choice. Will letting her go for good be mine? This book can be read as a standalone but is also a part of an interconnected series of standalones. It is adult in content and is intended for readers 18+.

The man I once loved - and lost - is back. Only this time, there's more than just my heart on the line, there's his daughter's heart too. Leo and I were high school sweethearts who promised to love each other forever. Until I discovered that love is a lie, and I broke that promise. When my life crumbled around me, and my career as a professional ballerina ended in an instant, it seemed clear to me that I didn't get to have any of my dreams come true. Finding my way to Dogwood Cove, and rebuilding my life there as a dance teacher, was my last chance at happiness, with just one big thing missing: The part of me I gave away a long time ago, and never expected to get back. Leo has always owned my heart, and no other man has ever stood a chance. When he shows up in my town almost twenty years later, with a little girl I can't help but adore, it's impossible not to get swept up in the hope of a second chance. After all, Leo makes it clear he's determined to break down my walls, rebuild my trust in love, and prove to me that our promise was never really broken. But then life decides to knock me down again with a direct hit to my just starting to heal heart. With twenty years of heartache and pain between Leo and I, can I let him stand beside me as I face the ghosts of my past, all while fighting to keep my dance studio afloat? Or will all of the hard lessons I've learned, only make me push him away again?
