He was her first love... and her best friend’s brother who left without a word. Now he’s back in Copper Creek asking for a second chance.

Camilla Palmer is sunshine in boots. She’s steady, kind, and just fine on her own. She pours her heart into training pups for the ranch and keeps romance at arm’s length. After all, the only man she ever loved disappeared without a goodbye, and she’s not interested in repeating that lesson.

Dallas Thorton spent years chasing fieldwork and telling himself it was for the best. He never stopped loving Camilla, and the letter that should’ve explained everything never reached her. He’s back in Copper Creek and ready to stay—if he can convince the woman he left behind that this time he means it.

When old sparks reignite, one truth threatens everything: another assignment could take Dallas away again. Camilla refuses to be left this time—so she ends it first. But Dallas refuses to let history repeat, and plans on doing whatever it takes to fight for the only future that ever felt right.

Don’t miss this small-town, second-chance love story in Camilla & Dallas, Palmers of Copper Creek Book Four.
