Heās bringing a ghost town back to lifeā¦
Ten years ago, desperate to save his fatherās life, Carter Elliott pulled the plug on Elliott Ridge, the failing company town owned by his family for generations. After a decade with the Navy SEALs, heās back to resurrect it so he can bring his father home. Heās ready to start a family of his own, too, but first heāll need a wife. The minute Carter meets Amanda Stakewell, he knows sheās everything heās been looking for, so he offers to sell her his house for a dollarāand to renovate it for her, too.
Sheās searching for a place to call homeā¦
Three months ago, Amanda allowed her father back into her life, but when she discovers heās swapped one of his forgeries for a masterpiece, she steals the original from him, determined to return it. Too late, she learns a far more deadly criminal is after the painting. Now sheās on the run and a small, abandoned logging town sounds like the perfect place to hide. Sheās willing to trade a dollar for a temporary roof over her head. And if a handsome Navy SEAL wants her to help him renovate it, she can go along with that, too. Sheās not going to fall in love with him, though. Sheās learned her lesson when it comes to men.
Now Carter is doing his best to show Amanda how good life on the Ridge with him could be and sheās finding it hard to resist his vision of the future.
But when Amanda goes missing, Carter finds himself in a race against time to find her before he loses everything he lovesāall over again.
