Big Girls Don't Cry

After being left pregnant and alone by her college crush, Linda Travers has made a good life for herself and her six-year-old son, Mac. As the only physical therapist in her small mountain town of Renegade Ridge, she's not surprised to find herself the first stop for the local population after being treated for injuries. But she's more than stunned to find herself face to face with the newest patient, Dave Madsen--the man who'd loved her and left her. Mac's father.

After being injured in the Amazon, Dave returns to Renegade Ridge for some nice, quiet recuperation. He remembers Linda as the girl who'd mysteriously left him without a word--strange, since what they'd shared had been so good. But Linda can't get past the resurgence of pain and anger, which she'd thought she'd put behind her. Dave had always been her hero, but neither of them are the same people they'd been. Can she trust him to stick around? Or will letting herself love him again only tear her—and Mac—apart?
