I already had my happy ending. Childhood sweethearts, my late wife and I made four beautiful kids together who are now grown and married off themselves. I’m content to be their old dad, tending to my ranch and my tomato plants. Until Emily Carson and her tempting curvy body and her smiles that she hands out like candy, crashes into my life making me want things I have no business wanting.
Emily
I’ve been on my own, more or less, my entire life. So when given the chance to move to the cutest, most quaint small Texas town I’ve ever seen. I’m the newest resident of Saddle Creek and I’m settling in perfectly. I love my new town and everyone seems to love me too. Everyone except, widower and silver fox, Bram Whitmore, who seems to hate me at first sight. Too bad the feeling isn’t mutual. Because that man, with his legit dad bod, is the most tempting thing I’ve ever seen.
He’s a man I could easily fall in love with, but I know I’m not enough to compete with the woman who loved him first.

I don’t know who needs to hear this but take a day off from being the bigger person. Fuck some shit up.
Those words were said to him by a stranger in the airport. And from that moment on, he’s only had eyes for her.
Too bad they met when she was taking off for three months to parts unknown. Otherwise, Keene Day—yes, that was really his godforsaken name—would’ve tried a little harder to get her info.
Lucky for him, fate takes pity on him.
They meet over and over again in the airport. First in the security line, then at the terminal where they’re both on the same plane. Finally, after a few delayed flights, an emergency landing, and a six-hour road trip, he finally pulls his head out of his ass long enough to get her info.
And over the next few weeks, they talk over the phone and get to know each other.
But fate is funny.
Just as easily as it can bring you to a person, it can tear them away, too.
And Ande Carter’s life is about to take a turn for the worse.
But Keene is there for it all. The good, bad, and ugly.
