When she finds out his secret, will he lose her for good?
Jacob Winters has a secret: he’s come to Colton undercover as an FBI handler. He didn’t plan
to stay, but the small town has charmed him with a sense of community that he hasn’t felt in a
long time. And his attraction to the beautiful Mae Colton complicates things even more. Jacob
doesn’t do relationships—he won’t risk making memories he might regret.
Mae Colton loves her little town of Colton, Mississippi, and doesn’t want to leave. In fact,
instead of moving on to bigger things—namely a political career in D.C.-like she’d planned, she
wants to run for a second term as mayor of Colton. But not everyone in town supports this
choice, including the commitment-phobic Jacob Winters.
Mae is ready to make their secret relationship official and go public, but that would break
Jacob’s one rule. When a threat against Mae’s life forces him to admit the truth of his feelings,
he has to race to save the woman he loves before it’s too late.
