Welcome to Ransom, Texas, where the family ties bind and love runs hot. One of the juciest pieces of gossip around town is what’s happening at The Love Barn, Ransom’s new boutique wedding venue run by the Lively siblings. Word around the tea shop is that Scarlett Lively is getting awfully close to a jilted groom. Then there’s whatever is going on with Benji! We have it on good authority he’s not just teaching his high school crush to play the guitar. And then there’s Garth, who has been noticeably missing from happy hour at The Watering Hole. Will these three break the family curse? Or are they destined to repeat it?

The Love Barn

BENJI REACHED BEHIND HIM, grasping for Dixie's hand. She wasn't in this alone. He'd stick with her while they handled this asshole. Let the whole town see what a dipshit he was at last.


It was just their luck that the first officer to react to the situation was Liam Jones. The guy was an easy going country boy-until he got into uniform.


"Jace." Liam lifted his hand, his focus on Jace. "Hey, Jace? Why don't we go around back and talk?"


Benji glanced at Dixie just as she darted around him.


"Jace?" Her tone was all soothing and sweetness. Not what Jace deserved.


"Dixie-don't." Benji grasped her hand, tugging her away from where Liam and Jace now stood toe to toe.


She whirled on Benji, her calm, collected nature shining through. "Stop."


"You're only making this worse. Just-stop." The chill rolling off her was almost cold enough to bring the Texas temperature down a couple degrees.
