A deliciously sexy, enemies-to-lovers, surprise single dad, standalone romance with cowboy boots, bad attitudes and an adorable baby neither of them saw coming.

She came to Heart Springs for answers. He’s spent years avoiding them.

Kade Archer was supposed to have it all—a future on his family’s farm, a wife, kids, and a lifetime of memories. But life doesn’t always go as planned. Now, he’s an honorably discharged veteran, barely holding it together, who knows the past is easier to outrun when you don’t look back.

Georgia Walker has one job: assess, report, and move on. She’s not in Heart Springs to get tangled up in its whispers or the grumpy man with too many walls and even more regrets. Kade is everything she’s learned to avoid….stubborn, closed-off, and far too tempting for her own good.

Especially in a worn pair of jeans, cowboy boots and a backward cap.

But when her job ends, the pull between them doesn’t. Not when the storm they’re both running from threatens to break them wide open.

He’s all rough edges and untamed grief. She’s fire and sharp words, a spark he never saw coming.

The past has shaped them, but maybe their future doesn’t have to be written in the ashes.

Maybe, it’s written in dandelions, shooting stars and rainbows after the storm.

In a town full of memories, can two broken hearts and a new baby find their way home?
