Troy Drysdale is a man of few words and even fewer smiles. Running a family farm in rural Australia doesn’t leave time for romance, especially not with the reckless American backpacker who just crashed into his life. Literally. Mackenzie James hit a wombat, trespassed into his bull’s field, and somehow charmed her way into his wildlife rescue. Now she’s living under his roof and driving him absolutely insane.
Mackenzie didn’t fly halfway around the world to fall for another man. She came to Australia to heal from heartbreak, not to tumble into bed with a bossy farmer who barks orders like a drill sergeant. But beneath Troy’s gruff exterior is a man who relocates spiders, bottle feeds joeys, and kisses like he’s trying to brand her soul. Every day she stays, leaving gets harder.
What happens when a summer fling starts feeling like forever?
