?Oakley Bradwell, adored country super star, had it all. A platinum record, a handsome fianc?, wealth, and beauty. The blue jeans and flannel wearing girl from Oklahoma followed her dreams and became a sensation. Until the head games her fianc? played nearly destroyed her life. Coming home to Swells wasn't part of her grand plan, but she's happy again...especially keeping company with her best friend Boone McQuarrie.

All through high school, Boone loved Oakley, but there was always some other guy or her talent that kept him from feeling like he was the man for her. Despite his own abilities to sing and pick guitar strings, he was afraid of holding Oakley back. When she left for Nashville, he let her go. Her homecoming came as a welcome surprise. Her difficulties with an eating disorder and the obvious fact that she'll leave again someday keep him from telling her about his feelings...again. They're too different for things to ever work.

When Oakley discovers the body of a man who caused her trouble, a chilling chain of events break out that lead to her abduction. Boone has always been there for her and no obsessed fan with killer tendencies is enough to keep him from the woman he loves. While he's on the hunt to save her, Oakley's future lies in the balance. She's learned a lot about inner strength since coming home. It will take every ounce of courage she has to beat a killer and find her way back to the other half of her heart.
