Each book in this series features a different couple and a complete happily ever after.
Ronan Maddox served four years on a federal sentence for a fire his older brother set. He took the deal alone. He came home eight weeks ago to a horse barn that still knows his hands and a family that wants his face on their brochure, and he has decided privately he is no longer a man you put on a brochure.
Then his mother hires Silas Whitcomb.
Charleston-bred, Cornell-trained, very good at his job — designing the opening season of a small luxury guest property like the new Maddox horsemanship retreat. Five months out from a Lowcountry travel-press piece that turned his name into something he can't yet outrun. Silas came to Salt Fork to disappear into work. He did not come here to look at a horseman in a clean shirt and forget what he was hired to do.
The retreat needs Ronan's face on it. Silas is engineered to deliver. The contract ends in May.
When the same regional editor who ran the piece on Silas calls about featuring the property, two men who have organized their entire lives around being unrecognizable have to decide whether they will go on the record together — as themselves — or keep hiding in their separate uniforms until the season ends and Silas drives back to Charleston for good.
Spring opens on the Maddox Ranch in three weeks. Neither one of them is ready.
