Nate
No one escapes their reputation in a small town, and I’m the poster child for that. Five years ago I earned the title of Darling Creek’s spoiled brat, aimless flake, and the guy who stood up one of the town’s favorite sweethearts. I’ve changed, put down roots, and now I run a successful downtown business. And I’m ready to settle down. It’s just too bad the one woman I’m meant to be with is attached to someone else … until she’s not. When passions ignite, I soon learn Meredith’s needs run counter to my instinct to be gentle with her. But how can I be anything but as tender with her as she deserves?
Meredith
As a reporter in a small town, my job is my whole world — until one day my life is turned upside down in a way I’m not prepared for. Unexpectedly, the man who makes me coffee suddenly becomes my support system, my partner, and my passionate protector. He swears he’s never leaving my side, but what he doesn’t understand is I need him to do things to me … a certain way. More importantly, does he understand what it means to take on a girlfriend whose baby isn’t his? What will people say?
