Blurb:

After three years in the city, Ivy Farnsworth never expected to return to Harmony Hills as her brother’s guardian.

At twenty-six, she suddenly finds herself raising sixteen-year-old Joe and juggling two jobs, determined to give him the chance to chase his dream of becoming a pilot—even if it means putting her own on hold. The last thing Ivy needs is a distraction—especially

Ford Hayes, the firefighter next door. Wary and closed off after a messy divorce, Ford has no interest in giving love a second chance… until Ivy’s quick wit, quiet strength, and unwavering optimism begin to chip away at his walls. Ivy has spent her life taking care of everyone else, but Ford is the first to truly show up for her.

As their friendship slowly deepens into love, they must decide if they’re willing to risk their hearts—or if the weight of their pasts will keep them apart.
