Publisher Description
Mainer Farms is steeped in family history, but it’s also deep in debt from the effects of the ever-changing farming industry. Not about to let his family’s legacy go under, Colt Mancinkus is willing to do anything he can to save the farm.
Darby Culhane is the new farmer in Whynot, North Carolina, and she’s proving to be quite the forbidden temptation for Colt. Darby isn’t looking for anything but a fresh start, and she’s got it all figured out. Get settled in? Check. Apply for the rural county grant? Check. Confrontation with the steaming mad, smoking hot local farmer? Well, that wasn’t on the agenda.
As pretty as she is sweet, Colt can’t help but be drawn to Darby’s…peaches. No really, she’s a peach farmer. Get that mind out of the gutter, and get on down to the farm to see what happens when circumstances force Colt and Darby to team up. They may just find that the peach trees aren’t the only things in bloom.

Loved it
This was a fun, quick read full of romance, laughter and love of family. This is Colt Mancinkus and Darby Culhane’s story and I loved it from start to finish.
Ms. Poe describes Whynot in such great detail that I would love to visit. I love the idea of a small town where everyone knows you, although I am sure not everyone would appreciate that.
Colt is prepared to do whatever it takes to keep his family’s legacy, Mainer Farms safe and intact whilst all Darby is looking for is a fresh start. What could be more simple that that? When Darby applies for a rural county grant she finds herself in conflict with the all to appealing Colt.
After confronting Darby and explaining the importance of him being awarded the grant, Darby decides to withdraw. However Colt is a Mancinkus and he feels that he should help Darby, particularly after meeting her daughter Linnie.
When circumstances bring Colt and Darby together, sparks will fly and temptation will be strong. They soon form a strong friendship, but will that be all it is? Linnie wants her family back together but Darby is determined that her ex remain just that and with the help and support of the Mancinkus family, she and Linnie will find the happiness that they so richly deserve.
Colt’s grandfather Pap is a great secondary character and I hope he actually gets his own story. In fact, all the characters made me smile and I cannot wait until we visit Whynot, North Carolina again as I am anxious to see who will be next in the series.
