From USA Today and international bestselling author of The Simple Wild comes a sweeping second-chance, forbidden romance set against the rugged beauty of northern Ontario.
Emery McAllister once dreamed of leaving Cold River with the boy next door, but one devastating night destroyed their future and left her heart carefully guarded. Twenty years later, she's built a life of control: running the town's police detachment, raising her daughter, and keeping a fragile peace with her ex-husband, the mayor.
She's certain she has moved on until the day she has dreaded—and secretly hoped for—finally arrives.
Logan Landry is home.
After two decades behind bars for being in the wrong place at the wrong time—and the choices that haunted him ever since—Logan returns to his family's bison ranch carrying the weight of everything he lost, but especially Emery. Friendship is all he dares hope for now, but seeing her ignites a fire he thought long extinguished.
When a teenage girl disappears and old wounds reopen, Logan becomes Cold River's favorite suspect, despite his airtight alibi. As distrust closes in, Emery must choose between the life she's built . . . and the love she can't let go.
What stood out most was how immersive the experience felt. The small-town setting, family relationships, mystery elements, and emotional character journeys all worked together to create a story that was easy to become invested in.
Emery and Logan are wonderfully developed characters, and their shared history gives every interaction added meaning. Their story unfolds at a steady pace, allowing the emotional moments and relationships to develop naturally.
The mystery running alongside the romance added an extra layer of tension and kept me engaged throughout. I found myself constantly wanting to listen to just one more chapter to see how everything would unfold.
Summer Morton was phenomenal as Emery. She brought warmth, strength, and authenticity to the character and made her easy to connect with. Ryan West also delivered a strong performance as Logan, capturing both his quieter moments and the emotional weight of his journey. Together, they created an audiobook experience that felt natural and engaging.
I'd recommend this audiobook to listeners who enjoy second-chance romance, small-town settings, strong family dynamics, and stories that balance emotional depth with a compelling mystery.
A thoughtful, immersive listen that stayed with me long after it ended.
