When I moved to this small town, I was not prepared for Samantha Graves.
Not only is she my new neighbor, I unknowingly just became her landlord.

Buying thirty acres of woods and a small house sight unseen isn’t what most would call a smart decision.
But I needed to get out of New York as soon as possible and this place looked serene and private. No one was supposed to be anywhere near me.
Especially not a gorgeous bartender who doesn’t listen, refuses to leave, and pushes all of my buttons.
She’s the most infuriating woman I’ve ever met.
She’s also the most intriguing.
I never expected feelings for her to crash into me like a head-on collision.
She's gotten under my skin and with every minute I spend with her, I fall deeper under her spell.
So when the danger from my past follows me to Calico Ridge, I’ll do whatever it takes to keep her safe.
Because protecting her is the only thing that matters anymore.
