Staying in the city could cost him his life, but going home means facing a buried past and truths long hidden.Asher Logan has been a lot of things: runaway, guitarist, cage fighter, and cowboy, but the one thing he's always avoided was being a father to his young son. Now faced with returning to his family's ranch, he's forced to deal with the knowledge that the move would put him right down the road from Shawn.

But returning home means facing demons, and the barn he's avoided since the day his father caught him and his first love together in the hay. Speaking of his father, when the old man finds out Asher is back, he knows it will only be a matter of time before he demands Asher come to the prison to see him.Moving means facing a buried past and truths long hidden, but staying in the city isn't good for anyone, least of all Asher's young nephew, Rory. It's a hard road to face, filled with tough choices, and an old secret that just might provide more questions than answers.

All of his life, Caden DeMott's mismatched eyes have made him the target of superstition and scorn. Though he is the son of a nobleman, he's been allowed to run free over the hills and moors, mostly ignored by his family. No one ever thought to inform him that he had been betrothed since infancy until the day his fiancé, Prince Rhys Gwyther arrived to marry him. Rhys is the prince of the small island country of Mauritania, a land rich in gems, rose oil, and pearls, but poor in skilled artisans and seeds to grow crops. In order to further cement the trade route to the mainland, he's been sent to marry a man he's never met and bring him back to Mauritania. Unfortunately, an accident years before has left Rhys with a lot of emotional baggage and very little trust in strangers. But trust is exactly what Caden and Rhys are going to need if they are to make a life together, and help unravel the mystery of who's been smuggling valuable gems and pearls off the island. Add in the realization that Caden's stepmother, Mildred, and her island representative, Maxwell, have been importing inferior goods for years, forcing Mauritania to become more dependent on them, and trust becomes even more difficult. Caden possesses the knowledge to finally allow Rhys' father to unravel the plot to ruin Mauritania, but only if the king and his son are willing to put their faith in Caden's loyalty to his new home. Something that is difficult to do after Caden is accused of cheating on his marriage vows to Rhys with his guard, Luc. Will Rhys believe him innocent? Or will their marriage be over before it truly has a chance to begin?
