“Failure” has never been a part of Norah Burke’s vocabulary, so it comes as quite a shock when she gets fired from the marketing firm where she's built her career after threatening to blow the whistle on some shady business practices. Licking her wounds, she heads South for a little home-grown comfort.

Cam Crawford is a man who values tradition, preservation, and the love of a good woman. He’s not about to let a big box warehouse store capitalize on his hometown's economic downturn. He'll raise hell if he has to in order to stop them from destroying what he holds dear.

This unlikely pair just might be the perfect allies—in war and out. But will this city girl's bigger-picture perspective go with this small-town boy's "keep it as it is" attitude? And even if they can send the suits packing, can she really give up her corner office and power lunches for the corner booth at the local diner?

Wishful Romance

MYLES HAD THE POPCORN on the stove and some of the kitchen chairs hauled into the middle of the living room floor by the time Piper came back out. He tried not to notice how the little tank top hugged her curves, but failed miserably. It wasn't that there was more skin exposed than there had been in the dress. It was the intimacy of seeing her in pjs. Didn't matter that he'd seen Skye in the same ones. He sure as hell hadn't been fantasizing about her for the last six months.


Piper crossed her arms, plumping up the breasts he was trying not to ogle.


"You want a sweatshirt or something? I didn't think about you getting cold." Please say yes. Myles had every intention of being a gentleman, but his will-power was only so strong.


"Huh? Oh." He lifted the edge of the comforter and finished draping it over the chairs. "I made you a blanket fort."


"A blanket fort?" The edge of confusion in her smile told him she didn't get it.
