Nothing Too Fancy

She's a farm vet with calloused hands, muddy boots, and a no-nonsense heart that's learned to keep its distance. Love? That's just one more luxury she gave up to chase her dream of working with big animals.

Men like Adrian Blake—money, charm, and polished shoes—don't mix with stubborn grit and terrible coffee.

Adrian isn't looking to be anyone's savior. He's building something real in Ashby Lake, and Erin is the only woman who's ever made him want more than what he was born into. But earning her trust? That'll take more than sweet talk and expensive wine.

She's not used to leaning on anyone.

He's not used to being needed.

Sometimes love doesn't come with fireworks.

Sometimes it shows up in the middle of a stable—with whisky, sarcasm, and a stubborn willingness to stay.

This time, it might be just enough.
