BLURB:
The only things Natalie Bouchard wants to change
are the weekly specials in her Gram’s diner. So when her high school sweetheart
strolls back into Dearling , Texas ,
she allows herself to indulge in a little flirtation, but that’s as far as it
goes.
Navy SEAL Sawyer Nolan has returned to sell his
father’s land and get the hell out, no matter how enticing he still finds
Natalie. Until a storm rolls over the Texas hills, stranding them together at
the farm…and the memories of their steamy past
lead to a reunion filled with hot days and long nights.
Soon Natalie’s so far under Sawyer’s skin he can’t
imagine being without her. But he has a lot of history in Dearling he’d like to
leave behind, and Natalie is practically married to this town. If Sawyer wants to be more than just another
person who leaves Natalie, he’ll have to give his hometown—and himself—one more
chance.

Teaser:
Rain was common this time of year, which
helped keep the temperature down and was vital to the newly planted crops.
Unfortunately, it occasionally escalated into tropical storms and hurricanes.
As a result of all the moisture and activity in the skies, storms were always
brewing somewhere off the coast.
Even when they did culminate in a
land-based storm, battering poor Galveston for the umpteenth time, they were little
more than a thunderstorm by the time they reached central Texas . Despite this, the exact coordinates of
the current storm system in the Gulf, its windspeeds, its trajectory, were an
endless source of conversation.
“When do you think it’ll touch down?” Joe
mused.
“Can’t say.” Mr. Winterman shook his
head. “Any day, though. Could happen.”
“Yeah, but it probably won’t reach us,”
Joe said, being a fairly reasonable and levelheaded individual despite his
youthful antics and current sheriff’s uniform. Or maybe because of them.
Mr. Winterman grunted. “Right when you
least expect it, that’s when it’ll happen.”
Just then, the cowbell over the door
clanged. Natalie looked up, dragging her gaze over well-hung jeans, a faded
T-shirt…and a face that damn near stopped her heart. Scruffy and solemn and—damn, damn, damn—familiar.
“Sawyer,” she breathed.
There was too much noise in the diner for
him to have heard her, too much distance between her behind the counter and him
just inside the door, but his gaze honed in on her. Recognition flared in his
eyes. And something else. Something dark and hot and clenching tight in her
belly.
Lucy turned too. “He’s the guy who got me
all wet. That’s Sawyer Nolan? He
looks so different.”
“Mmm-hmm,” Natalie murmured, although he
didn’t really. Taller, bigger, thicker in all the right places, but the same
clear brown eyes that lit from within when they met hers.
It had been five years since he’d made an
afternoon appearance in a black suit for his father’s funeral. Another six
since he’d graduated high school and left town as quickly as the Greyhound
could carry him. Even after all these years and all this distance, she
remembered the feel of his arms around her waist. He had been a lanky teenager,
but even then he’d been taller than her, bigger than her. Now he was massive.
He would engulf her. His hands on her hips and his mouth over hers. He would
swallow her whole, and please, yes, where could she sign up?
