(Un)Rivaled

The first rule of moving on?

Never let your past catch up to you.

But some secrets can’t stay hidden forever.

Devyn Winters knows she’s not easy to love. And that’s never bothered her, not when she’s too focused on her law career to think about relationships or anything else. After all, she’s tried the whole love thing before, and it only ended in disaster.

But when Devyn’s world falls apart, she’s left with no other option but to move back home, the one place she swore she’d never go again. As soon as she crosses the border into Saint Stephen’s Lake, she already knows she’s made a mistake, especially when she’s confronted by her past love, her former best friend.

And her accidental husband.

As an up-and-coming pitcher in major league baseball, Grayson Anders was supposed to be one for the history books. At least, until he abruptly quit mid-season, citing personal reasons for his early retirement. Now, his life is a far cry from what it used to be. But he wouldn’t have it any other way, happy to be home when his family needs him the most.

At least until he finds out his estranged wife is back in town. He tries to tell himself to stay away, but that’s not an option, not while he still feels a powerful pull between them. As his plans deviate, he’s got one thing on his mind: earn back Devyn’s trust.

Despite his words, Devyn is wary, unwilling to let Gray back in without knowing his reasons for walking away years earlier. But even as outside forces work against them, Gray’s not backing down, not this time. Because now that Devyn is back in his life, he’s determined to prove that there’s a reason their connection has remained unrivaled all this time.
