With no cell signal and days to kill before his car is repaired, Nate reluctantly accepts Juniper's offer to stay in her converted barn. But proximity breeds friction-and unexpected sparks. As Nate adjusts to the rhythms of small-town life, he's drawn into Juniper's world of paint-stained mornings, stormy evenings, and emotional honesty. What starts as a battle of opposites becomes something deeper and far more dangerous: vulnerability.
Their connection intensifies during a stormy night, igniting a kiss that neither can forget. But when Nate is called back to D.C. for a critical case, the life he left behind-and the one he's begun to build with Juniper-collide. Juniper, no stranger to heartbreak, refuses to chase after someone who might vanish again. Nate must decide whether the success he's always chased is worth losing the only person who's ever made him feel seen.
In the city, the deals are polished-but Nate feels hollow. In Pine Hollow, everything is messy-but it feels like home. When he returns to Juniper's porch with nothing but his heart and an apology, he finds a woman still scared, still guarded, but willing to risk everything for someone who finally stayed.
