I’m not supposed to like Jack Sullivan, let alone fall for him.
He’s the grumpiest man in Oakridge, a former Navy SEAL who barely speaks, barely smiles, and definitely doesn’t trust anyone, especially me.
Then one day he storms into my clinic after hours, carrying his injured service dog like his world is ending, and suddenly I’m the one holding everything together.
Now we’re stuck working side by side.
The more time we spend together doing follow-ups in my clinic and long days on his rehab farm, in a town determined to push us together, the harder it is to walk away.
Every quiet moment. Every steady glance. Every touch pulls us closer.
Somewhere along the way… we fall for each other.
And everything changes.
Then my dream job calls. The one I’ve worked my entire life for.
I never anticipated Jack coming into my life.
But if I’m wrong about him,
I won’t just lose my heart.
I’ll lose everything.
And I’m not sure I’m willing to risk it, even for the only man I ever loved.
A slow-burn small-town romance, grumpy/sunshine, forced proximity, found family, and hard-earned belonging.
Genre: Romance
