ARC

Sage Baker was the rightful heir to Baker Farm. Unfortunately for her, the constant threat of bankruptcy pressures her to step aside. While her heart remains with the herd, the dream of running her own dairy farm quickly fades, and she's forced to pass her future on to someone else. When Miles Carver stumbles upon the property, priced to sell, he buys it without thinking twice. Nothing could possibly stand between him and forty acres of rolling hills. That is until he realizes that buying the farm has sealed his fate as Sage Baker’s enemy. Sage tries her damndest to avoid him, but when Miles calls her, begging for help, she has no choice but to intervene. A mutual love for the herd brings them close, but just as they begin to put their differences aside, the very thing that brought them together threatens to tear them apart. Another horrible accident shakes Lox, Virginia, and when Baker Farm may cease to exist, the pair has to answer a difficult question—Do they do what it takes to save the farm or sever the bond that was never supposed to be?

Two rival families. A marriage between their heirs. In public, it’s love. But in private? It’s war. Aiden Prince is the arrogant heir to the old money family that destroyed mine. He’s hazel-eyed and sharp-jawed, the golden boy of high society. I’m the girl who’s never belonged in his world. At sixteen, I poured my soda on his loafers. He told me to lick it off. At eighteen, I learned the truth—Aiden’s family took everything from mine. I vowed to make everyone who mocked us eat their words. At thirty, I have the chance to get back everything Aiden’s family stole…but I have to marry Aiden to do it. In public, we’re the perfect couple. But in private? We’re playing a dangerous game—the first one to desire the other loses. I’ll never give an inch to Aiden…until I see who he is beneath his cold exterior. He’ll do anything to protect me. His touch sets me on fire. His world doesn’t want me. My family doesn’t want him. We promised to divorce once our deal is done…and we each lose everything if we fall in love.
