Mac thinks the attraction between her and Boston is merely physical. So why does it feel impossible to let him go?
If you had met me before this week, you’d have thought I was one of the most responsible, play-it-safe human beings on the planet. You’d have assumed someone juggling three jobs and managing her own business wouldn’t even have the time to get involved in messy relationships.
That’s what I thought, too.
I was wrong.
This week, I met Boston. He wears the ripped jeans, messy hair, and adorable look like he was born that way. I’m game for some harmless flirting, maybe a little more, and he definitely doesn’t have any objections. Why deny the obvious spark we have?
Because that’s all it is: a spark. The sooner I can enjoy a taste of Boston’s lean, chiseled body, the sooner this silly infatuation of mine will be over.
Then I’ll be safe.
Except that kissing Boston doesn’t snuff out that spark. Not the first time, or the second, or the third.
Instead of satisfying my curiosity, I want to know about him: why he’s dropped everything to help out his family, why he has a way of calming tense situations down, why I can’t get enough of his smile.
Why he’s making me question everything I thought I wanted.
Why I can’t stay away…

When April Summers receives a modest inheritance, she knows exactly what she wants to do. Without a second thought, or more than a cursory internet search, she purchases her new home in the scenic foothills of the Sierra Nevada mountain range. She packs her few belongings into a moving van, ready to swap big city life for a 19th century miner’s cabin and a hobby farm. What she gets instead is one historical wall, the world’s most disgusting RV, and a ragtag band of misfit animals. Worse, the handsome owner of the local feed store is ready and waiting with a big bill, a stone-chiseled jaw, and a gleam in his eye!
In his previous life as a professional sports fisherman, J.T. Thomson traveled the globe, but he has never seen anything like the spunky, capricious blond that just rolled into town. It’s as if a Hollywood starlet wandered into the wilderness, expecting Mother Nature to bow at her feet. She owes him money and, after their first disastrous meeting, an apology.

A front row seat to this humiliating debacle should help erase some of April’s debt.
Lures are supposed to be flying, not sparks. And the only thing J.T. meant to reel in was a steelhead, not April’s heart. But sometimes, the best catches come when you least expect them.
