No matter how much Sawyer Mills brings her joy, he is not simple! When she refuses to see him after a botched proposal, the last thing she expected was to be quarantined with him, alone, with the same fever that nearly claimed her life.

Sawyer Mills is quite content with his life. His job is physically demanding, and he relishes every minute of it.

He knows he messed up but plans on using every moment they have together to court Annamae the way he intended. As Annamae nurses him back to health, can he convince her to take a second chance on his proposal?
