'Sebastian (Seb) Taylor and Rebecca Whiteman were high school sweethearts dreaming of a future together, when one terrible night forever changed their destiny.

Eighteen years after the tragedy, Rebecca, newly divorced, has brought her children back to the town she left behind, to start a new life.

'Seb, an elite SAS soldier in the Australian Army, has returned home injured, angry and grieving, to face a town that hasn't forgotten and a father who has never understood him.

'Rebecca has enough problems of her own without adding Seb Taylor to the mix; a failed marriage, two children to support and an annoying heavy breather who refuses to stop calling. The last thing she needed was her first love to make a sudden reappearance in her life...especially when it was clear he came with more baggage than an airport luggage carousel.

'Seb didn't want to get mixed up in Rebecca's problems. And he sure as hell didn't need two kids thrown into the equation. He came home to heal his wounds, both old and new but could he do it without getting burnt?'
