When big city transplant, Emma, arrives in town to help run her aunt's struggling diner, it’s clear to her that small-town life is not as idyllic as she thought. The locals are skeptical of outsiders, and the diner is barely staying afloat, but nothing can deter Emma. Jack, a local farmer, is going through a rough patch, too. They join forces to save the dine and the farm, and find themselves growing closer and closer despite his family’s resistance to an outsider and the call of the city. How are they going to make it work, when small town pressure and family expectations are stacked against them? MacKade Thou shalt not steal. Oh, but Florence had, and would do so one last time. Ten pieces her grandfather painted for her because he loved her. Ten pieces her mother lost, along with anything else, for loving the wrong man. She’d be damned if she’d give up those paintings. Easy and genuine, Rhett loves his life–his family, his market, his town. Then he meets a British woman with grey eyes and a cute little smile. The thing is, to love her is easy, but can he trust her? When Rhett uncovers her agenda, Flo knows she will lose the man she loves, or what she’d been fighting for years. Which road will she choose, knowing either will shatter her heart?
