She knows he’s bad for her… so why can’t she stop loving him? Small town police officer Iris Nimura has done a decent job of trying to pretend her ex, the love of her life, farmer Carter Daniels, doesn’t exist — not an easy thing to do in a tiny tourist town like Paradise Bay. But when their paths cross again and they find themselves standing up together in their friends’ wedding, the old attraction flares back to life and it’s impossible to ignore… no matter how many times Iris tries to remind herself that she and Carter just don’t work. When she runs into trouble on the job, she finds herself seeking solace in the one place she’s ever felt at peace: Carter’s farm. Living with him in the house they once shared brings every good memory, every loving moment, back to life. It also brings back every fight, every misunderstanding, and the seemingly insurmountable differences that eventually tore them apart. Even though Iris knows better, everything in her screams for Carter, for the man who once ripped her heart to shreds. And when the dream she’s been working toward for most of her life is finally within reach, she needs to decide if it’s possible to have it all, or if one dream or the other needs to be left behind.
