       “Take your hands off me.”

      For a brief second, something akin to regret glimmered in his expression. But he released her and stepped back. “I’m sorry. I don’t usually manhandle women.”

      She wanted to believe him, but she’d suffered her share of men who did. So she refused to let him off the hook.

      His loud exhale punctuated the air. “Please sit down. I’ll behave.”

      He looked so contrite that a tingle of something like respect danced through her. But she refrained from commenting as another image taunted her. One of Ray’s hands on her, tenderly stroking her, making her feel safe. No, not safe. Alive.

       Fool.

      Ray McCullen was anything but safe.

      And judging from his brusque attitude, he was going to hate her when he learned the reason for her visit.

       Prologue

      Ray McCullen hated all the secrets and lies.

      He despised his father, Joe McCullen, even more for making him keep them.

      In spite of the fact that his brothers, Maddox and Brett, thought he didn’t care about them or the family, he had kept his mouth shut to protect them.

      God knows the truth about their father had eaten him up inside.

      Only now, here he was back at home on the Horseshoe Creek
