About this ebook
He’s about to cross all three … again.
Isla MacLeod has no time for smooth-talking charmers with big-city plans and sculpted jaws. Especially not Rory Scott. Not now. Not after the way he left. Her bees need tending. Her tinctures need bottling. And her Highland cottage shop runs just fine without his disruption … or his brand of tall, dark, rich, and handsome.
But Rory’s return to Kilbrae isn’t just a visit. He’s back with a proposal that could change everything for the village … and a second chance he’s not sure he deserves. Isla, fiery and fierce as ever, is the one obstacle standing in his way.
The problem?
The chemistry between them never died.
And one stolen kiss proves just how dangerous old sparks can be.
He came to win her back and possibly strike a deal.
She’s there to guard her heart.
But in the wild heart of the Highlands, some boundaries were made to be crossed.
She lives by moonlight and wildflowers.
He comes with contracts and plans.
One kiss … and neither of them is thinking straight anymore.

Opal doesn’t like being restricted to what form her stories take. She breaks rules and bends things a bit to keep the tale the way the characters want it told.
In her writing, Opal Nicks explores many different facets of relationships. She hopes to captivate you with the nuances of love. Whether through a budding early relationship or a tension-filled reunion, she gracefully conveys the power and complexity of love-speak.
Her characters often possess an unbridled energy that gives them strength to take risks and traverse peril—all for love.

Always, it is worth the effort to attain it.
