Then there’s Charlotte Lane, his sunshine-hearted wife who somehow softened the hardest man in town without ever trying to change him.

In the small town of Alder Creek, Montana “Monty” Turner is the kind of man everyone knows—outgoing, hardworking, and impossible to ignore, a tattooed farmer with a bright smile and a habit of making even strangers feel like they belong. His life is steady, rooted in the land and the people who’ve always been part of it. That changes when Charlotte Hale arrives to settle her late aunt’s abandoned cottage and sell it as quickly as possible.
