As a teenager, Samantha Carlton used a career in modeling to break free from her painful childhood--walking away from her reckless twin sister, an alcoholic mother, and the boy she loved. Yet she never outran the guilt of abandoning her family. When the past shows up on her doorstep in the form of her late sister's daughter, Sam opens her home and her heart to the girl she never knew existed. But it's not so easy to face the man she left behind... Sam had shattered Trevor Kincaid's heart, and he'd sought comfort in her sister's arms. But he'd pledged to shield his daughter, Grace, from the drama that followed the Carlton women. Now Grace has tracked down Sam, and Trevor is forced to deal with the one woman he wanted to forget. History has a way of repeating itself, and the sparks between Sam and Trevor reignite an old flame. But as much as Sam wants a new future, is walking away again easier than risking her heart for a second chance at love?
