Summer Raine — Laurann Dohner

Summer fled her hometown after being betrayed...twice on the same day. Her father tried to force her into marrying someone she hated and the man she was in love with turned out to be a liar. Heartbroken, she left them both behind and swore never to return.Never say never. The death of her father and a determined lawyer force her to come back home. It will only be for one day. She'll be in and out of town before anyone realizes she's there. At least that's the plan.The love of Ryder's life just disappeared. She didn't even bother to say goodbye or tell him why she was leaving. He tried to find her but wasn't successful. Over the years, he's hardened his heart. He doesn't need love. That is, until Summer is standing before him. She's back. And in danger. Eleven years may have passed, but one thing hasn't changed. Ryder still wants her...now more than ever.
