The Heiress And The Handyman
(2025)(The fifth book in the Callahans of Elk Ridge series)
A Story by Susanne Ash
She’s a runaway heiress hiding in the mountains. He’s the small-town handyman who sees right through her… eventually.
Sabrina Langley is used to headlines, high heels, and heartbreak. After fleeing a media frenzy and an arranged marriage designed to save her father's company, she trades her penthouse for a hammer and a dusty toolbelt, hoping no one in Elk Ridge will recognize her last name.
Max Callahan isn’t thrilled when a rich girl shows up to ‘help’ with his renovation project at Mountain Laurel Lodge. But when Sabrina refuses to quit—even after splinters, paint spills, and more than one bruised thumb—he starts to see the woman beneath the polished surface.
She’s messy. Determined. Endearing. And off-limits.
But the more they work side by side, the more Max falls for the woman Sabrina is becoming, not the heiress she’s running from.
When the truth comes out, Max feels betrayed. Was anything between them real? Or just another story written in secrets?
Now Sabrina must prove she’s not running away. She’s finally fighting for the life she wants. And it might just include the grumpy handyman who stole her heart… and helped her put the pieces back together.
