Whiskey Bend, Texas, drenched in secrets and stalkers. Paramedic Matt Steele saw more than his share of action as a corpsman in the Marines and welcomes the quieter life of the small town where he grew up. When he's not working, he's helping on the family ranch or singing at the local bar. That is until hurricane Isabella blow back in town. As his best friend's little sister, she was supposed to be off limits, but he's still haunted by the memories of one summer that changed everything. That and a bar fight set their world on a different course. Isabella Talbot came home for peace and healing after she almost died in a car wreck that took the life of her soon to be ex husband. Instead, she got into a bar fight with her older brother and his girlfriend, her nemesis; landing her on the front page of the local paper. The same one she works for as a reporter. When her editor refuses to print a retraction for not one but two stories involving her, Isabella sets out to expose the Bootlegger for an ethics violation and runs head on into a much darker story, landing her in the crosshairs of a killer. Meanwhile a sniper from Matt's old unit is stalking Whiskey Bend, looking for revenge on the men who put him away.
