Summary

𝗬𝗲𝘀, 𝗜’𝗺 𝗮 𝘀𝗶𝗻𝗴𝗹𝗲 𝗱𝗮𝗱 𝘄𝗵𝗼 𝗻𝗲𝗲𝗱𝘀 𝗮 𝗻𝗮𝗻𝗻𝘆 𝗳𝗼𝗿 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝘀𝘂𝗺𝗺𝗲𝗿. 
But hire the 𝘀𝘁𝗿𝗮𝗻𝗱𝗲𝗱 𝗿𝘂𝗻𝗮𝘄𝗮𝘆 𝗯𝗿𝗶𝗱𝗲 who shows up on my doorstep in a wedding gown with no references, no skills, and no experience? 
𝗡𝗼 𝗼𝗻𝗲 𝗶𝘀 𝘁𝗵𝗮𝘁 𝗱𝗲𝘀𝗽𝗲𝗿𝗮𝘁𝗲. 
Except within twenty-four hours, down-on-her-luck Veronica Sutton manages to charm my kids, my family, and half the population of Cherry Tree Harbor into believing she’s perfect for the job. 
𝗔𝗻𝗱 𝗳𝗼𝗿 𝗺𝗲. 
It’s not that I can’t see the appeal–those baby blue eyes? The endless legs? That mouth made for trouble? But I’ve got enough on my plate, raising two kids on my own and keeping the family business alive. I don’t have the time or the inclination to fall for an outspoken city girl. 
So I should have kept my hands to myself. 
Holding her in my arms was a big mistake. Even worse? Spending the night together. She ignites a possessive fire in me that I’m finding hard to snuff out. 
But the most unforgivable? Growing attached to the sound of her laugh, the scent of her skin, and the way her body wraps around mine in the dark. 
𝗔𝘁 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗲𝗻𝗱 𝗼𝗳 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝘀𝘂𝗺𝗺𝗲𝗿, 𝘀𝗵𝗲’𝗹𝗹 𝗯𝗲 𝗴𝗼𝗻𝗲. 
𝗔𝗻𝗱 𝗶𝗳 𝗜’𝗺 𝗻𝗼𝘁 𝗰𝗮𝗿𝗲𝗳𝘂𝗹, 𝘀𝗵𝗲 𝗺𝗶𝗴𝗵𝘁 𝗿𝘂𝗻 𝗮𝘄𝗮𝘆 𝘄𝗶𝘁𝗵 𝗺𝘆 𝗵𝗲𝗮𝗿𝘁.
