Rising Storm by Edie James

Homecomings can be…deadly.

When retired Delta Force operative Rollo MacKenzie returns home to take the police of chief position in tiny MacKenzie Cove, he has lots of expectations, none of them good. He knows his teenage daughter will hate the move, his aging father will be grumpier than ever, and he’ll have no success whatsoever getting his hard-headed siblings to get along.
What he doesn’t expect is to find his first love targeted by a murderer desperate to keep a twenty-year-old secret buried.
After her husband’s sudden death, Alyssa Archer scrimped and saved to purchase the abandoned farmhouse on the prettiest hill in McKenzie Cove, but since she got the keys she’s had nothing but trouble. Someone wants her off the land, and it’s becoming clear. If she won’t leave, she’ll die.
Rollo MacKenzie might have stolen her heart twenty years ago, but this time, their association is strictly business. Sure, he’s as handsome as ever, but she’s a lot smarter now. With the Lord’s help, she’ll get out of this with both her life–and her heart–in one piece.
But as Rollo and Alyssa fight to unmask those responsible for the vicious attacks, they discover a frightening truth. Not everything that’s buried is dead.
