They told me Noah Pearson was gorgeous. Sinful. A successful venture capitalist. A Hollywood playboy. The kind of man I can usually spend the night with, then walk away from, no strings attached. No one told me I’d become addicted. Noah is all wrong for me. He’s charming and scandalous. He tears down all the careful walls I live behind.

I’ll admit, I made more than my fair share of stupid decisions, but all it took was an accidental felony and a teensy kitchen fire to turn my life upside down.

Then I got to Safe Haven Ranch and met my new boss.

But most of all, she needs International Guy’s help. That’s why she’s come to me, Parker Ellis. Ever since Skyler opened her door, it’s been a freakin’ hurricane of charged lust between us. Damn. I just don’t want to go too far, too fast. Only she’s making it so hard.

I wasn’t looking for love. Putting down roots in this small, Southern town was the last thing on my mind. Ben changed all that with his kind nature and gentle ways.
