The Forgotten Path — Marci Boudreaux

No one has ever accused Annie O'Connell of backing down from a challenge. She's tough as nails and that's what everyone has come to expect from her. But even the strongest of people need someone sometime. Marcus Callison has loved Annie for as long as he's been working at O'Connell Realty. He would stand by her through thick, thin, and everything in between. If only she'd let him. When tragedy strikes and Annie is left feeling vulnerable, Marcus does everything in his power to make all right in her world again. He just hopes it's enough to convince her that he is worthy of breaking through the walls she has built around her heart.
