Buck by LJ Vickery

Buck Sothard was completely unsure if his decision to leave the Coast Guard was a stroke of genius, or would end up biting him in the ass. Certainly, from a business perspective, things looked bright. But coming back to his hometown after all these years…? He had no idea what kind of reception he’d get. He hadn’t exactly left on good terms. But if he were honest, it actually all came down to how one certain individual viewed his return, if he could get her to speak with him. And that was looking like a huge “if”.
Bobbie Follster had gone through hell, but had emerged on the other side as a successful business woman. Still, she wasn’t what anyone would call, happy. She was…cautious, and that’s the way she’d like to remain. Too much bad stuff had happened in her past to let her trust the future. But now, with Buck Sothard coming back to town, it upped the chances that her life would once again be derailed. Why, oh why was he arriving to haunt her now? She didn’t need more complications in her life. Her ne’er do well brothers were trouble enough.
