Synopsis
From Wall Street Journal bestselling author Winter Renshaw comes a small-town slow burn about a writer who returns to her roots and the farmer who helps her grow. Wren Jensen thought she had it all--until she was left at the altar and left with nothing but writer's block. Out of options, she packs up her five-year-old son and heads back to her hometown of Colton Valley, hoping the quiet countryside will inspire her again. Hunter McCrae wanted that property for himself. The last thing the grumpy farmer expected was a single mom moving in next door--or how much she'd unsettle his carefully guarded solitude. Wren isn't looking for love. Hunter isn't looking for neighbors. But with every stolen glance and shared moment, the walls they've built start to crack. She's haunted by heartbreak. He's married to his solitude. Neither is ready to risk it all. But sometimes love doesn't follow rules. It grows wild, right where it's not supposed to.
