About this ebook

Leslie Maitland, a well-established doctor at Chicago General, returns home after her broken relationship with long-time lover Paul Packett to live with her grandmother in the quiet town of Craicsville, Kentucky. Her homecoming is upended when she discovers aspiring politician, Travis Winston, has ingratiated himself in her grandmother’s life. His constant presence grates on Leslie’s apolitical nerves and dashes her hopes of a tranquil existence as the town’s newest doctor. Against her will, she is plunged into a political firestorm that forces her to confront a childhood tragedy in her past. Redemption means placing her trust in the very man she despises.
