After years away, Dalton Callaghan has returned home to face the loved ones he left behind.

She’d loved him as a teen, but he’d only had time for his music.

Sierra Collins knows that Dalton’s return means nothing where her heart is concerned. As she’s watched him live his life from a distance, any of the young love she once harbored for him has mellowed into affection and concern. Or so she says…

Music has meant everything to him, but now its silent.

After seeing his bandmate die from the very same drugs he was using, Dalton knows he needs to clean up his life if he wants to live. But sobriety quiets his muse, forcing him to turn to those around him for a distraction and to keep him from repeating past mistakes.

Living in close proximity to each other takes Sierra and Dalton’s acquaintance as teenagers to a friendship as adults. But while Sierra has accepted that there is no hope of anything more between them because of the drastic differences in their lifestyles, Dalton seems to feel differently.

But is he looking for something permanent? Or just a distraction while he tries to figure out the rest of his life?
