Paige Summers came to Montana to become unsearchable. She runs the animal rescue's social media, keeps her rheumatoid arthritis to herself, and has no intention of ever being anyone's headline again.
Marcus Webb is a journalist chasing the developers circling the valley and investigating the toxic boss Paige used to work for. He doesn't plan to fall for a source. He definitely doesn't plan to fall for the one woman in Haven Creek who has every reason not to trust him.
Then a story runs with her diagnosis in it, permanent and public, and there are cameras at the rescue’s gate. He swears it wasn’t him who exposed her, but can she believe him?
He gave up two career-defining stories to protect her. It wasn't enough. Now he has to prove that staying isn't something you write down — it's something you do the morning after.
A tender, slow-burn, closed-door romance about second chances, found family, and a rescue dog who was right about everyone all along.
