A Fake Engagement They Fight to Contain . . .
To say Tess Graham has a complicated relationship with her hometown is putting it mildly. With family ties and a successful real estate business sheβs built from the ground up, Tess doesnβt want to leave. Not really. She would, however, like someone to see her for who she really is rather than the overshadowed twin in one of the townβs most prominent families. If only she could make a name for herself and find her place in Cobble Creek.
When handsome wildland firefighter, Monroe Scott, comes into town and wants to buy Tessβs grandfatherβs barn for his reclaimed wood business, Tess feels a tug of nostalgia she didnβt expect. How can she allow Monroe to dismantle her childhood memories board by board? But as the listing agent, how can she prevent it?
To get what they each want, Tess and Monroe enter into a very temporary, very pretend engagement. As sparks fly and tempers flare, this fake engagement ignites into something both parties fight to contain.
