After an ugly court battle with the con artist she almost marries, a kindergarten teacher wins back the chicken farm that’s been in her family for generations…or not. Halle Garrett soon discovers her ex-fiancé lied under oath, already sold the farm, and has since skipped town with the cash. She returns home to discover a perfect stranger moving in. Well, three perfect strangers—a single dad with twin boys. Over Owen Tolliver’s dead body is he simply going to hand back the deed to the farm he just spent his life savings on. Yeah, he sympathizes with his sons’ smoking hot schoolteacher, and he’ll gladly use his detective skills—and every other resource available to him as the newest employee at Lonestar Security—to get her the justice she deserves. He even jokingly offers to marry her himself if she’s up to the task of helping him raise two of the orneriest kids in Texas. Her answer tells him exactly how serious she is about helping him catch the fraudster.
