I came to escape the city—
not to share a toolbox with a hot carpenter who growls when I breathe too loud.

Levi’s all scowls, muscles, and secrets.
So we’re stuck fixing Aunt May’s house together.

The deal is eleven days.
No flirting. No feelings. Definitely no future.

But then he catches me—literally—when I fall from the ladder.
Burns the grilled cheese, but we eat it anyhow.
Tells me I’m not broken, even when I feel like rubble.

And I believe him.
Right until I find out what he’s been hiding.

A daughter.
A son.
And enough money to buy the entire TOWN.

Now I can’t breathe without thinking about the kids.

Or him.

Or the ring in his pocket he thinks I haven’t noticed.

I thought I was falling for a man with nothing to offer but wood and wit.

Turns out, I might have nothing he needs.

And it’s too late to walk away clean.

But in an astonishing, lovely twist at the end ... 

       no ... I don't have the heart to reveal that just yet ...

The book's free, after all.
