One call. That's all it took to change everything. The sweet voice on the other end of the line delivered a blow I never saw coming. Fighting for our country's freedom and staring death in the eye was nothing compared to this news.

History has one hell of a way repeating itself. Kate Wilson's voice didn't waver once as she turned my worst nightmare into a reality, and her words weaved a cruel poetic justice.

I hadn't been back home in over two years. Once I pulled into the one-horse town, I was greeted by the gorgeous blonde.

Kate extended her hand and offered me a warm smile. The connection was made. The innocent beauty has no idea that she just flipped my life upside down.

She'd unearthed secrets that can never be buried.
