Reece Morgan had been a newly orphaned ten-year-old when he came to Serenity Falls to live with the grandfather he barely knew. He spent the next eight years butting heads with the stern old man, determined to prove that there wasn’t a rule made – and his grandfather made plenty of them - that he couldn’t break. Sheer pig-headedness kept him on the right side of the law and got him through school but the moment Reece picked up his diploma, he blew out of town, swearing he’d never set foot in the place again.
But twenty years later, he was back. He only planned to stay long enough to wrap up his grandfather’s estate but then he met his new neighbor, a tall redhead with legs that went on forever and a slow, teasing smile that made him feel like maybe Serenity Falls wasn’t a bad place after all.
Shannon Devereux had spent her childhood constantly on the move, dragged along by a father who could never seem to settle in one place for long. After his death, she was determined to find a place where she could settle in and sink down roots. She’d found that place in Serenity Falls, a pretty little town in central California. She had a home, a thriving small business and good friendships.
Despite what some of those friends thought, she wasn’t looking for romance, didn’t long for someone to share her life with. She’d had that once and it seemed greedy to expect to find that sort of happiness again. She liked her life just fine the way it was, thank you very much.
The fact that the living embodiment of tall, dark & handsome had moved in next door wasn’t going to change her mind about that. He was only staying for a few weeks. She could certainly resist temptation that long. Couldn’t she?
