Come Back For Me by Corinne Michaels is the first book in her new captivationing Arrowood Brothers series. Four brothers shared a horrific, abusive childhood that not only bonded them but also drove them away from each other and their family home. They made a pact that they would never return home and would never have children to carry on the Arrowood legacy. They have returned home to bury their abusive, drunken father. They are going to sell off the family farm and never look back.  Their abusive father is going to strike out one last time from the grave with his last will and testament. He is determined to destroy the last bit of joy in the Arrowood name. All four brothers will once again pay a high price for being born an Arrowood. They may hate their legacy but the past they left behind includes more than despair and heartache. They may have left the only shred of happiness they will ever have in life. Vows can be broken, souls can be bruised and battered, but the heart will continue to beat until the love that was meant to heal can do it’s job.

*

Connor Arrowood is forced to resign from the Navy Seals due to a leg injury that hasn’t healed right. Instead of a heroic, joyful release from military service he is forced to return home for his father’s funeral. He’s hoping the money from selling the farm will finance his next step in life.   Rather than getting an inheritance he is getting an ultimatum. His father’s will demands that each of the four Arrowood Brothers spends six months home on the family farm or the inheritance from the proceeds of the farm will be forfeited. Each brother has to comply or they all lose. Connor is expected to be the first to stay on the farm because he is not tied down to a career and has time on his hands. He is also very handy and can repair the broken down farm.

*

The only good memory Connor has of Arrowood Farm and Sugarloaf, PA after his mother passed away when he was seven is his last night there. The night before he shipped out for the Navy. He had an exciting, anonmymous affair with a woman who captivated his heart and soothed his soul. Their promise of one night only has stayed with him all through his adult life. He never dared to dream he would come face to face with the woman of his dreams once again. Nor did he ever imagine that seeing her again would change his heart towards the Arrowood Farm.

*

Ellie met Connor on the night she found herself at crossroads for her future. She chose the right place to lay her weary heart but chose the wrong road the next day. Once again she’s at the crossroads in her life. This time she can’t choose the wrong road because her daughter’s life also depends on it. She never dreamed she would meet Connor Arrowood once again and that he would be her shelter in the storm.

*

Their lives are tied together from the past and their future is dependent on letting go of the secrets from the past that bind their nightmares. Only they can choose to love one another no matter what. A little girl is depending on their love for her happy future.

*

The Arrowood Farm may not be living hell after all. It may be Ellie and Connor’s slice of heaven.

*

I can’t wait to see what happens next in Arrowood Brothers saga. These broken men are coming home.

Corinne Michaels has once again captured my heart with Come Back For Me.
