When her husband, who loved her with a patience few men possessed, learned of her darkest desires, he became a man on a mission. Then she ran out of time, and Ruby knew her secrets would remain just that- secrets. But that didn't matter, because love, after all, only comes around once in a lifetime.Buck didn't trust women. He wasn't fond of people in general, not after surviving the sharp sting of betrayal so many years ago. But that didn't matter now; his life was good. When he found his private plot of land, he was relieved that the family next door shared his desire for solitude. Then he saw her long auburn curls and heard that infectious laughter. But that didn't matter either, because she was another man's wife. He'd never live in her world.In her debut novel, Alys Locke takes you on a journey with two people who believed they knew everything there was to know about love, only to discover a truth neither expected: You can love more than once in your life, but rare love only happens once in a lifetime.Note: This book contains strong language and explicit love scenes. It does not include cheating or a cliffhanger, just a very satisfying happily ever after.
