By the Rules

No liars. No guys in suits. No dating…


AJ Fabin’s list of rules keep him safe. Since getting kicked out of his parents’ house and attacked by a former escorting client, his rules and his life in the tiny town of Evergreen Grove provide a quiet haven. He may be lonely, he may be the odd man out, but life is peaceful. 


Hayden Price is having a quarter life crisis. Engaged to a woman he can’t connect to and working a job he secretly hates, he flees to Evergreen Grove to help his mother through a health scare. Returning to his childhood home makes Hayden reevaluate a lot of things, including himself. When he meets AJ and finds he can’t stand the mouthy jerk—almost as much as he can’t stop thinking about him—he has a lot more to change than his career.


To be together, they’ll both have to change all of their rules.
