Blue Collar Crush

Moving back to my hometown after my marriage collapsed was supposed to be a fresh start. Except my dream home turns out to be a money pit, my daughter blames me for ruining her life by moving her to the middle of nowhere North Carolina, and my sexy neighbor is the man I lost my virginity to.  Thatcher Hayes is even better looking than he'd been the summer when I was seventeen. He's all grown up, with broad shoulders, a chiseled jaw, and a soft spot for my bookworm daughter.  Even though Thatcher is the man I've always dreamed of, I can't forget the way we ended things. And after a bitter divorce, my fragile heart can't take another beating. Thatcher always said he wasn't good enough for me, but he was the perfect first love. He was gentle and sweet—until he broke my heart. I come as a package deal, and I have enough baggage to sink a ship. I'll never trust my heart to another man, except Thatcher is the boy I used to know. Only better.
