Excerpt: 

He chuckles again, then winces as he shifts, clearly sore. “You always this mean in the mornings?”

“Only to strangers trespassing on my property.”

That wipes the smile clean off his face.

For a second, there’s something almost … remorseful in his eyes.

“I’m not a stranger,” he says quietly. “We’re old friends.”

“We were never friends, Waylon.”

“Weren’t we?”

I cross my arms over my chest and shake my head. “Not to my recollection. Just neighbors.”

“Okay,” he says. “Fair enough.”

I stand there in the humming barn, staring at my biggest regret, surrounded by horses and old memories I didn’t ask for.

He looks out of place and familiar, all at once—like trouble that never really leaves town, just lies in wait for the right moment to sneak back in and wreak havoc on your life.

“Guess I’ll get out of your way,” he says, walking past me to the barn doors. Then he glances back and points in the opposite direction. “You said two miles that way, right?”

I let out an exaggerated breath. “If you plan on jumping barbed wire and cutting through hay fields.”

“Great. Seven miles on the road it is,” he says before turning back to the doors.

I glance at the sky, just starting to lighten.

“Wait, Waylon,” I call. “Cabe’ll be back at any minute from riding the fence line. He’s get some secret breakfast date in town. I’m sure he wouldn’t mind dropping you off on his way.”

“That’d be awesome. Not sure I’m up for that walk.”

“Just wait by the front of the barn. You don’t want Grandma Evelyn to catch sight of you through the kitchen window. You’d get a tongue-lashing or dragged inside for breakfast. No way to tell which way it’d go.”

“That’s a terrifying thought.”

He continues forward, dripping water onto the concrete, and pauses at the barn door. “Hey, Shelby.”

I look at him despite myself.

“Still feisty,” he says. “Some things don’t change.”

I lift the hose again.

He laughs and ducks out into the cold morning.

And just like that, Waylon Ludlow is back in my life—wet, hungover, and exactly the kind of complication I don’t need right now.

And with a Ruby. Figures.

I sigh, turn back to the horses, and mutter, “This day has already been too damn long.”

Blurb:

Waylon Ludlow was my first heartbreak—the boy I secretly loved from the sidelines while he ruled Wildhaven High and then disappeared without a word. Now he’s back, all smirks and whiskey-soaked charm, and with a baby no one knew about.

But I’m not the same quiet girl I once was. I’m fire now. Feral, stubborn, and one smart-ass comment away from punching him square in the jaw.

I live loud, love hard, and fight for what matters. And even though Waylon is a mess of mistakes wrapped in faded denim, my heart still skips like it’s seventeen every time he looks at me. And his little girl, well, she’s got me wrapped around her tiny finger.

We clash. We burn. We break things. But the more I push him away, the more I wonder—am I chasing the storm, or is it chasing me?
