Southern Roads: Road Not Taken; Book 1 (Signed) by Amanda Layne

Eight years ago, Colt Huntington left Reed Hollow in the back of a cop car… and took Kelsie Lynch’s heart with him.

Now he’s back for his grandmother’s funeral, and the town that never forgot his scandal is ready to watch him burn all over again. Kelsie should be safe. She’s rebuilt her life, buried the hurt, and sworn off the boy she loved in secret… the one person she can’t have.

Except Colt isn’t a boy anymore. And the chemistry between them is still a spark to dry grass.

In a small town full of rumors, old scars, and one brother who still doesn’t know the truth, Kelsie and Colt are forced to choose: protect what’s left of their lives… or risk everything for the love they never got to claim.

A heart-wrenching, dual-POV small-town romance about healing scars and reclaiming lost love. Perfect for fans of Elsie Silver and Natasha Madison. Contains mature themes.
