Blurb:

Gabrielle Lawrence left Harrington with no intentions of looking back. Now a successful tattoo artist with her own shop, she’s rewritten her life to erase every memory of The Six - the high school clique who made her miserable, led by the ruthless Jocelyn. But when her best friend drags her back for a bachelorette party, Gabrielle stumbles right into the arms of the one who shattered her heart: Jace Caufford.

Jace was the golden boy - prom king, football captain, heartthrob - until a career-ending injury wrecked his dreams and left him grappling with his own demons. Now, years later, he’s back in Harrington, living in his childhood home and raising a son he never knew existed. The last thing he expects to see is Gabrielle, fierce and untouchable back in his life.

What starts as a reluctant reconnection soon ignites into an impulsive night of passion, but with old habits - and old rivals - standing in their way, forgiveness won’t come easy. Can Gabrielle and Jace overcome the heartbreak of their past and the new threats that loom, or will Jocelyn and The Six ensure their second chance is over before it begins?
