Carter Pierce wants nothing more than peace and quiet on his family farm after his tour of duty — until Summer Lentz, a big-city journalist, arrives to interview him for a magazine article. Summer’s smart mouth and denim-blue eyes quickly get under his skin as she digs into the story of the farm, types away at his kitchen table, and even sleeps in the spare bedroom across the hall. Carter’s only hope for peace is to scare her off — but Summer’s stubborn streak and her own hidden secrets make that harder than he expects. As nosy neighbors and the county beautification committee get involved, Carter and Summer realize that exposing secrets might lead to uncovering unexpected romance.
