While she’s escaping her past, will she find her future?
Lou McPherson is used to packing up her five-year-old daughter and running in the middle of the night, desperate to escape the past that stalks her. They never stay in one place long and Lou has no intention of Townsville being any different. But with her bank account empty, she accepts a job from a new friend. She tells herself it’s just temporary in spite of her surprise attraction to her friend’s brother, a handsome and sexy distraction. He’s also grumpy and stubborn and not in Lou’s plans for making a quick exit.
Bennet Carlson’s rough edges and troubled past have left him uninterested in this tornado of a woman who blows into his small town. She’s nothing but trouble. When his formidable sister insists he help Lou, he reluctantly does what he can. But that will be it. He’s had too much loss to let her get close. They may butt heads, but no matter how many times he tells himself he’s going to stay away, he can’t stop his growing feelings for her.
Bennet’s family and roots are deep in Townsville. Lou’s made it clear she’s leaving, and he’s determined to let her go. Falling in love wasn't in Lou’s escape plan. At risk of her past catching up with her, does Lou dare to plant the roots she so desperately wants for herself and her daughter and accept the soft heart of the tough guy who’s falling for her?
