They grew up in the same small town but come from two different worlds.

With her career imploding and a family history that reads like a trashy tabloid, Autumn Maddox can’t afford any more disasters if she wants to hold her head up high when she returns to her old home town. So she’s going to do the impossible—smile brightly at every “bless your heart,” ignore the not-so-subtle digs, and pretend the town’s sexiest bachelor is a monk.

He’s determined to be Autumn’s knight in shining armor, but it’s going to take more than sweet tea and sweet talk to convince the woman of his dreams that their love is meant to be.
