Falyn Fairchild has walked away from everything that mattered. Her car, college, and parents all sit in her past as she works shifts at the Bucksaw Café in her Colorado hometown. The governor's daughter now lives paycheck to paycheck, stuffing bills into a shoebox and dreaming of buying passage to Eakins, Illinois, where forgiveness might wait. Then Taylor Maddox slides into her section. This firefighter carries himself like trouble, flashing charm between broken promises and showing up covered in grime from his dangerous work. Falyn recognizes the type and refuses to become another conquest for a Maddox man. But Taylor thrives on challenges, especially the kind that beautiful, uninterested waitresses provide. When Falyn discovers Taylor's connection to her destination, the stakes shift completely. Her gift for disappearing will clash with his family's legendary persistence, and this time Taylor might discover what it feels like to lose.
