[Sander's Valley 01] • Take Two

** *Sometimes it takes years to realize a mistake. But only a night to find a way back into your lover's heart.* **

Kyle Sander is an expert at starting over. At eighteen, he had his whole life planned out—get married, have kids, grow old with his high school sweetheart. His plans came screeching to a halt the day Ronnie Axel skipped town without a goodbye.

A decade later...his first love is back. But when revenge sex turns into the second chance he never expected, Kyle's goal is set. He wants his perfect life and the woman he could never replace.

The years apart didn’t fix their issues, though. Ronnie’s obligation to the family business threatens to tear them apart a second time. But it’s the family scandal involving her that might make their separation not only permanent, but…deadly.

**Escape to Sander’s Valley and indulge in an opposite attracts and second chance series of bad boys, real men, billionaires, rock stars, Russian lovers, and more.**

*Start with the Sander brothers, then follow along as their cousins and friends find their happily ever afters with the most unexpected, strong, and independent women. *

**Author’s note:** Multicultural relationships, especially Russian and American couples, are prominent in the *Men of Sander’s Valley series*.

Ronnie raised her gaze to his. The bruises on her face twisted his gut, but her hazel eyes mesmerized him, exactly as they had a lifetime ago. His words got stuck in his throat. Finally, she shook her head, breaking the spell she’d cast over him. “Ten minutes in town and I run into you. Talk about luck.”

“Good luck, I’d say.” Kyle motioned toward the bruise on her cheek. “What happened?”

She folded her arms under her breasts. “Armed robbery.”

She lied. He could see it in her eyes. He stepped closer. “Don’t bother lying to me, Ronnie. I know you too well. What really happened?”

“I haven’t seen you in years, Kyle. You don’t know me anymore.”

He supposed she was right. He’d thought they’d spend their life together. She’d proved him wrong. Still, she drew him like no other woman ever had.

He brushed a finger over her bruised skin. “Come on, doll. Talk to me.”

She grinned. “I always loved that nickname, you know.”

He matched her smile, couldn’t help it. “And you’re changing the subject.”

“Armed robbery, like I said. I really don’t want to talk about it.”
