A paramedic must face old wounds when his Hollywood heartthrob ex returns home and tries to win back his affections. Will he find closure or will he give first love a second chance?

Coming back to Tahoe was a mistake. At least, that’s what Carson Keaton thinks the minute he returns to his hometown. When he ran away five years ago, he left everything behind, including Brand West, the only person he ever loved. Not that he had a choice. But now that the danger has passed, he returns home to reclaim Brand. The biggest question is, is it too late?

Brand West is a paramedic with a broken heart. Just after high school graduation, the love of his life hopped a Greyhound to Hollywood, leaving without explanation. Now, five years later, Brand is determined to forget about Carson by throwing himself into his career, his community, and—thanks to his best friend playing matchmaker—a hot new lover. But now Carson’s back in town, as irresistible as ever, leaving Brand with two choices: find closure and move on, or give first love a second chance.

Oh my! Second chance romance - check! Hot characters - check! A secret that drove them apart - check!

When Carson disappeared out of Brand's life without even a glance back, Brand has spent years trying to rebuild his heart and to find someone to share his life with again. Carson left for the bright lights and now he is a star on a successful TV show. The show is on a hiatus, which sees Carson return home  for the first time since he left. 

Brand is rightly angry and cold towards Carson for the way he treated Brand. Carson didn't really expect to run into Brand again but he and his heart has never forgotten Brand. The reason for Carson's departure all those years ago is a shocking one and one outside of his control if he wanted to protect those he loves. Forgiveness and trust is hard to give but Brand must give it if they can be together again.

Whilst it is obvious to any reader that Brand and Carson belong together, they have hurdles to overcome before they can reach that point. This was an incredibly well written book that was sensitive to the issues it raised. I read it all in one sitting as I wanted to witness their HEA together.
