Description
It was never over. It was just waiting.
Nathan Carter didn't return to Worthbridge looking for a second chance. He came back for a roof over his head, a job that pays, and maybe, if he's lucky, a way to connect with the teenage son he's barely known. Life in the army taught him how to survive, but not how to be a father... and definitely not how to live with the choices he made the day he walked away from everything. Including Freddie Webb.
PC Freddie Webb never left Worthbridge. Not the town. Not the ghosts. Steady, dependable, the man everyone trusts to hold the line when things fall apart, he's spent years keeping his head down and his heart locked up tight. But all that control shatters the moment a routine arrest throws him face to face with the boy he once loved... and the son that boy now has.
What started between them as teenagers was messy, intense, and unforgettable. Fifteen years later, it's no less complicated. Especially with Alfie, Nathan's angry, guarded son, caught between them and already spiralling toward trouble.
As old desires resurface and old wounds reopen, Nathan and Freddie are pulled back into each other's orbit. But with the whole town watching, tensions rising, and the past refusing to stay buried, they'll have to decide: play it safe... or risk everything for the love they never got to finish.
Because in Worthbridge, the past never stays buried.
And some loves are worth every second of the wait.
