Falling for her best friend’s brother is forbidden territory. He doesn’t even like her, but when tensions rise, beneath it all simmers an attraction neither can deny.
Elijah Keagan had one unbreakable rule growing up: don’t date his sister’s best friend. So he never acted on his secret crush. Besides, Elijah has every reason to mistrust Scarlett. She was a big part of his sister’s path to self-destruction and she isn’t to be trusted.
Scarlett left Copper Creek in a blaze of dreams and never looked back. After the death of her mother, she’s back in Copper Creek and determined to stay. It’s time to settle down, find a husband and start a family.
Problem is, no one believes her.
When Scarlett’s dad hurts his hand and can’t work on their farm, Elijah volunteers to help them. That way, he can keep a close eye on Scarlett. It’ll be hard work, but Scarlett will leave soon anyway, right?
Elijah vows to keep Scarlett away from his sister and to not believe her lies this time. But what will he do when that lingering crush starts turning into something stronger?
