Forever Hearts by Elle Linder

A wounded Marine, his old high school sweetheart, and their second chance at love.

Dawson Hart returns home a changed man. His small town welcomes him with open arms. His family is grateful he’s alive. But the one person he wants to be happy to see him isn’t. After a decade, it is obvious his first and only love hasn’t forgiven him. Piper has three words for him: Leave me alone.
Piper is angry the boy she once wanted forever with is home for good. Except Dawson is no boy anymore. He is mature, infuriatingly handsome and cocky as ever. There is little Piper can do, aside from hiding on her farm to avoid Dawson and she is failing at every turn.
He’s weakening her resolve. She’s afraid to lower her guard.
But the chemistry between them is impossible to ignore. After all these years, will Piper finally forgive Dawson? Or will an unrequited love stand in the way of their second chance at forever?
