Book Description
For Caitlin Winters, losing her scholarship was the last blow to her ego. The thought of returning home to her alcoholic parents sounds impossible, but she has no choice. For the last two years, she's been feeding her drinking habit. Keeping it out of sight and mind of others was the easy part, the hard part was facing herself everyday. Back in her hometown she runs into an old flame, the one who got away, Hugh Evans. He isn't the high school boy she used to know, but a suave and wealthy executive helping run a successful power company in Nevada. His brash confidence and ego are exactly what Caitlin needs to remember the way things used to be, and the way things could be. When he invites her to join him in Reno, she accepts without a second thought. She doesn't count on discovering his life isn't nearly the perfection she thinks it's made to look. Seeing a reflection of herself, in him, sends her on an emotional roller coaster she doesn't expect. As their lives and passions become more entangled, so do their problems. Emotions and tempers rise in the desert heat, but will the shining light of the summer sun be enough to cut through their dark pasts? Will they discover the keys to figuring out their problems in each other, or will the past push them apart again, keeping them from finding true happiness? This New Adult Romance novel is recommended to readers over the age of 17 due to graphic language and sexual themes.
