Samantha Hawley’s life has not gone according to plan. Married young due to an unplanned pregnancy, she is now a full-time nurse raising a mouthy daughter and a son with special needs. After kicking her philandering husband, the beloved town mayor, out of the house, the rumor mill in her small Southern town catches fire. Adding fuel to the growing flames, an incident at the high school forces Sam to come face to face with her daughter’s demons—and the undeniably handsome school psychologist, Dr. Landon Ford. As things heat up between Sam and Landon, her vindictive ex is determined to ruin her happiness by using the children as a pawn in their divorce. Starting to crack under the pressure of her tumultuous custody battle, Sam must learn to accept love after betrayal, trust her instincts, and fight for what matters most in her life—reputation and rumors be damned.
