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

Garth LIVELY HAD NEVER hunted. Never gone after what he wanted. It was hard to do that while trying to raise two teenagers, keep a roof over their heads and food on the table. Treading water had become his default setting and in the ten years since his life was upended he hadn't realized he was stuck. He'd become a slave to necessity and he had the scars to show for it.


This was a new chapter for him. A crossroads in his life he honestly hadn't thought he'd live to see. The path he'd been on was at a yet another roadblock. It had ended without warning or even the courtesy of a sign.
