Small town gossip can tear down even the strongest woman.
Aurora “Rory” Haven’s life is in shambles. Her cheating ex-husband’s living with the woman he left her for, her oldest daughter blames her for the divorce, and she’s broke. When her sister’s best friend, Nash—the too-young, way too-hot local contractor—makes a proposition, she figures she doesn’t have anything left to lose.
Except maybe her mind, thanks to all the fantasizing she’s been doing about him…
Nash King is working his butt off so he can take over the family business. The arrangement with his best friend’s sister should help, not make it harder to ignore a decade-long attraction to the hot-as-hell Rory. The summer heat and forced proximity has tempers flaring, their chemistry sizzling, and Havenbrook’s gossip mill churning about the divorcée who’s crushing on a man eight years her junior.
The last thing single mom Rory needs is the townspeople finding out she’s knocking boots with Havenbrook’s favorite blue collar contractor.
