Publisher Description
There’s nothing riskier than giving love a second chance …
Ashiya Waters is glad things have finally settled down with her Robidoux cousins. Now that they’re all boo’d up, she can pursue her own happiness … until she gets a call. Her paternal grandmother has died, leaving her fortune and multi-million dollar business to Ashiya. She hasn’t seen her father’s family since she was a kid and she’s reluctant to take anything from his family—they’ve caused enough destruction in her family. But she can’t turn down the opportunity to start again … particularly when she could use a change of scenery. She let lingering feelings for her first love ruin a relationship with Russell Gilchrist and she’s regretted it ever since. She broke his heart and it will take a miracle for him to give her another chance—she knows that. But she isn’t ready to give up yet …
Russell foolishly fell for Ashiya and he won’t ever let that happen again. Now he’s completely focused on gaining more power at the Robidoux Holding so he can finally have the money and resources his family didn’t have when he was a kid. It’s not for him—it’s so he can finally find out what happened when his brother disappeared years ago. So when Ashiya asks for his help in running the new company she’s inherited—in the town where his brother disappeared—Russell agrees. He can do both at once. But the more time Russell and Ashiya spend together, the more he’s reminded of why he fell so hard for her in the first place. She’s fooled him once. But can he trust her a second time?
