Welcome back to Fairlake, the best little town in Colorado! Nothing better than catching up with old friends.

The townsfolk have been sticking to their motto of always helping their own, but there are still secrets and surprises. The town’s 150th celebration is the perfect time to catch up with everyone, and, of course, Grant is baking cakes, Bennett is causing chaos, and Ayla finds herself in the middle of things.

Find out who’s doing what and with whom.

Bennett, Adam and Bri are being run ragged by three kids now, and a foster kid is planned for another couple. Only two couples remain unmarried, but which ones? One of them is working on a surprise proposal, but this is Fairlake, so it won’t go as planned. Someone is panicking over having to give a speech at the celebration, and there have been some life changes for others.

Of course, it wouldn’t be Fairlake without a kidnapping and an explosion!

The only thing that frustrates me more than my life, is Elliot!

And the feeling is mutual.

Yes, yes, I know. I let my temper run away with me…again. That's what got me locked up in the first place. I hit Riley, then Elliot and I got into a fight, and now I'm stuck with the idiot 24/7. What kind of hellish punishment is that?

I don't think I hate him, and I'll be the first to admit he's kind of hot, but God, will he ever just shut up!

Forced together and told to work out whatever this thing is between us, it turns out Elliot may be the one person in the world capable of keeping my temper at bay. He…gets me. Maybe we could be good for each other. Maybe…more?

Turns out we are good together, very good! He brings out a softer side of me no one has seen before, including me. I can't possibly be falling for him, can I?

But violence and death are just around the corner, and if I'd known what hell awaited us thanks to a missing flock of dumb sheep and a gang of drug runners, I might have walked away…but now, it's too late.

I was sent to Isaiah Ranch for a second chance at life—not love.

For two years, I've ignored the presence of the beautiful man whose heart I broke. Despite working on the same ranch, searching for the same redemption, I've managed to avoid Reed.

Years ago, I walked away because Reed deserved better than a pathetic loser like me. He was destined for greater things, and I would only drag him down. I left him to save him, breaking both our hearts.

But my luck has run out. Circumstances force Reed and me together, and it turns out our flame was never extinguished. If anything, it burns hotter and brighter now we're older.

It's the second chance I never thought I'd get.

When history repeats itself, and a false allegation threatens not just Reed's freedom but the love we've rekindled, I'll do whatever it takes to find the real culprit and clear Reed's name.

Because this time, I'm not walking away.

The best revenge is to be happy and let karma do the rest…but how can I be happy when everything was taken from me?

Two years ago, I lost my safety, my dignity, and the man I planned to marry. Now, I'm haunted by nightmares, with only my cats and my café to keep me going.

Then Kai returns—my childhood best friend and the first man I ever loved, though he never knew. With his strength, kindness, and unwavering support, I begin to heal and rebuild my shattered life.

But when the past resurfaces, threatening to destroy my newfound peace, I realize that karma won't be enough. I need to confront the monsters who destroyed me.

Kai is my anchor, warning me not to lose myself to the darkness, but with him by my side, I'm ready to fight back. Together, well find the men who took everything from me—and this time, I won't be the one left bleeding.

Revenge might change me, but I'll reclaim my life with the man I've always loved by my side. What could possibly go wrong?
