My family owns a fix-it business. Not just any fix-it business. We have master plumbers, electrical gurus, construction geniuses, and more. I've been working the family property since I was little. Mostly my family job was kid-wrangling during the summer. We all took turns teaching the kids how to do things on the property depending on their ages. I also worked at the Broken Spoke slinging drinks and flirting for tips. I preferred having my hands in the dirt surrounded by giggles and sunshine but it doesn't pay the bills.
Danielle has had her eyes set for one Rhys. She felt invisible to him through their teen years thanks to all the cheerleaders that attracted his attention. Being the Quarterback that took the team to State tended to get you a lot. When he came home from college and started working for the family business, Danielle wondered if she'd have another chance at catching his eye. Rhys saves her from the town drunk and holds her close as he walks her home. Once they get there, things heat up between them in a way she'd always fantasized about.
