First Love, Second Chance

Michael First seems to have everything a man could want-a wife he adores; beautiful children he delights in; loving parents and siblings who live close by the west Texas ranch where he works. Then fate turns his world upside down. Clare, his wife, is killed in a car accident-and when the police find that the brakes were tampered with, they charge him with the crime. As attorney Lara Stovall gathers evidence on his behalf, she discovers some serious cracks in Michael's perfect marriage. She discovers too a simmering attraction to him, which started when she was his girlfriend in high school, before he met and married Clare. The possibility of years in prison, lingering grief and guilt and doubt-that's a lot for any man and woman to overcome. But if they can, Michael and Lara might have a second chance at a first love.
