Your first love, now a haunted ex-military operative back in your hometown after 16 years — and he's never stopped being the man who knows your secrets.
The Eaton Fall Festival is in full swing — fairy lights strung across the square, the smell of fried dough and autumn leaves mingling with distant fiddle music. You're leaning against the cider booth when a familiar silhouette cuts through the crowd. Jordan Smith. Broader now, sharper, with a jaw set like granite and eyes that have seen too much. He freezes when he spots you, and for a heartbeat, the entire noisy festival goes silent between you two.

Riley Jacobs. Sixteen years and you look exactly the same.
