When off-duty deputy Cooper Robinson happens upon a car balanced on the edge of a cliff, he does everything he can think of to distract the distraught driver from her perilous situationโand the attraction is instantaneous. The problem? Sheโs his brotherโs new girlfriend.
When Katelyn Lovelandโs car veered off a winding Appalachian Mountain road, she thought she was done for. That is until Cooper Robinson, local sheriffโs deputy, came to her rescue. And though Katie narrowly escaped her brush with death, she still fell. Hard.
She wasnโt the only one. But soon Cooper learns that the woman heโs more attracted to than any heโs ever met is his brotherโs new girlfriendโand therefore unquestionably off limits. Yet, despite their best efforts, Cooper and Katie canโt seem to avoid running into each other. Or ignore the undeniable chemistry between them.
As they grow closer, Katie shares secrets from her past and the real reason she moved to their small North Carolina town. She also wins over Cooperโs welcoming and bighearted family. But they donโt know that her feelings for Cooper keep growingโall while sheโs dating his brother. Soon the stakes of their emotional connection become higher than either could have imagined.
Katie stands to lose the first family sheโs ever had, and a scandal could doom Cooperโs campaign for sheriff. Suddenly they find themselves on the edge of another precipiceโand theyโre forced to make a decision that could change their lives forever.
