Publisher Description
In this sweet romance, will a big-city veterinarian give this small town—and the single dad who’s caught her heart—a chance?
Veterinarian Harlow Jones knew returning to small-town life, even temporarily, would be a disaster. She just never guessed it would start that way—with her car skidding off the road outside Mistletoe, Maine. And while her rescuer is both charming and handsome, Harlow isn’t about to get involved with a local. She’s in town for one reason only—to pay off her vet school bills—and then she’s back to her real life in Seattle.
Nick Keegan knows all about unexpected, life-altering detours. He lost his wife in the blink of an eye, and he’s spent the years since being the best single dad he can be. He’s also learned not to take anything for granted, so when sparks start to fly with Harlow, Nick is all in. He senses Harlow feels it too, but she insists romance isn’t on her agenda. He’ll have to pull out all the stops to show her that love is worth changing the best-laid plans.
PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
A commitment-phobic veterinarian finds love with a widowed single father in Calhoune's heartfelt third Mistletoe, Maine romance (after Summer on Blackberry Beach). Harlow Jones swore off small towns after the residents of her childhood hometown spread a rumor about her father that forced her family to move. But when a veterinarian job in quaint Mistletoe promises to pay off her student loan debt after a year, Harlow can't pass up the opportunity. An accident nearly derails Harlow's plan when her car crashes into a guardrail and slides halfway off a cliff on the way into town. Luckily, she's rescued by search and rescue team member Nick Keegan—and sparks fly. Nick is open to love for the first time since his wife's death, but Harlow is resistant to starting a relationship, especially with a single dad, because she's planning to leave town as soon as the year is out. Can community and love win her over before this clock winds down? The slow-burning romance will draw readers in, with just enough sexual tension between the leads to titillate. Calhoune captures the small town's allure, and Nick's sweet relationship with his son and Harlow and Nick's adorable dogs fit right into the cozy atmosphere. Series fans will be thrilled.
