My new neighbor happens to be the grumpiest billionaire in Whispers, but his gravelly voice and golden brown eyes make this city girl weak at the knees. When my life imploded and I lost my job and my fiancé in a matter of weeks, I didn’t know what my next step should be. Then I received an inheritance that would change my life forever. Moving to a small town and renovating the old farmhouse was a step in the right direction. But bickering with my startling good looking, yet much older neighbor was not part of my plan. Tanner Whiteman owns the largest whiskey distillery in the country, and now he wants my land. It’s the only thing that I have to my name and there is no way I am letting him take it. It is clear I am not cut out for country life and Tanner has no trouble pointing that out. Although as his eyes linger a little longer and his words take new meaning, even the massive age gap is not enough to stop us. But something does. Something Vicious. Something unexpected. And not even the local billionaire knows what is coming.

I’ve never sought a savior, especially not a billionaire. But when a charming, single dad returns to my small town, memories stir of our shared past and our future feels increasingly intertwined. As the town's new Doctor, Hudson Hamilton is hard to ignore. Not only is he now in charge of my moms medical needs, but he is also best friends with my boss. His good looks and excellent bedside manner do little to tame the heat that swirls. But fantasizing never served me well and my life is chaotic, with one hurdle after another. No time to date, no time to daydream. But he bonds with my mom, I bond with his son, and despite my hesitation, his caring ways start to break down my walls. But just like everything in my life, it doesn’t come easy. Sinister things are at play. Danger is lurking and it is coming from those closest to us.

The moment a billionaire walks into my wellness clinic, it’s clear we don’t get along. Somewhere between the incense and the herbal tea, he starts insulting the business and stealing my ideas. Right then and there, I decide he needs to go. But then he offers me a job. One I can’t refuse. I have big dreams and even bigger bills to pay, and this opportunity will set me up for life. So I find myself in Whispers - the small town where billionaires come to hide. There’s more money in this town per square foot than anywhere else in the country, and thanks to Whiteman Whiskey, I’m now building my dream spa. For them. But Connor Whiteman and I don’t see eye to eye. Owner of the company, Connor, is what girls call swoony. He’s huge, all man, charming, seductively sweet - just like his liquor - and also best friends with the president. Not to mention, a pain in my side. As a plus-sized woman, I’ve faced my share of insecurities, yet Connor instills confidence I never knew I had. Our arguments become electric, our flirting off the charts. But he is my boss, I’m his employee, and we’re playing with fire. I should have stayed away. I should have kept my distance. Because when my past comes back to haunt me, it puts him in danger, and I don’t want them to take Connor down too.
