Romance novelist Emma Lovelace is a city-girl at heart, loving all the hustle and bustle until she finds herself caught in a scandal and moves to her best friend’s cottage in the country to hide while waiting for the unwanted attention to end. However, her friend won’t be there, and she won’t be alone. Sophie’s older brother shares the cottage, a no-nonsense cowboy who doesn’t appreciate having his peace and quiet spoiled by having a stranger move in. Can she win him over?  Does she even want to?

Liam is a simple man of the land. He wants nothing more than to potter around his sister’s farm as he comes to terms with the grief of losing his wife and unborn child.  It might be time he moved on and allowed himself to love again, but surely not with the city-girl with glitter nails who will only be around for a short time.
