"After losing her husband, Sienna Parker has been living a shadow of her former life, paralyzed by anxiety and guilt over not being the mother her young son deserves. When her sister, Maya, suggests a fresh start in a small town, Sienna agrees. Oak Mountain turns out to be nothing like she expected. Her son is thriving, she's minutes away from her sister, and for the first time in years, Sienna feels a spark of hope. But when that spark comes in the form of Maya's boss, Noah, she finds herself facing something she hadn't planned on: falling in love again.
The town knows Noah Garrison as one of the owners of Hawkins Ridge Animal Sanctuary and Farms. After his marriage to a city girl fell apart, he poured all his energy into turning Hawkins Ridge into a thriving business. Now with time on his hands, Noah wants to find a project that will have the town see him as his own man, separate from the Becketts. Spending his free time with another city woman wasn't part of the plan.
When the structure of Sienna's job changes, will she pack up and return to Philadelphia, or will she stay in the town that has accepted her and the man who rescued her heart? Welcome back to Oak Mountain. A town where everyone knows your name, family and friends are plentiful, and second chances aren't just for the animals."
"Claire Everson is working at her dream job, vet tech for Hawkins Ridge Animal Sanctuary. Growing up in Sunny View Trailer Park, she didn't think she'd achieve her goal of taking care of animals. Especially after her accident. When she took the job, she didn't factor in Jace Beckett; the youngest of the town's golden Beckett Family. A teddy bear wrapped in a handsome, charming package. His reputation as a man who couldn't commit made it easy to say no when he asked her out. Claire didn't want a repeat of her cheating ex-fiancé.
Jace Beckett knew he had a reputation. He developed it for over a decade. Between his ex-girlfriend and seeing his brothers' heartbreaks, it justified his decision to never open his heart again. However, he never thought he'd find someone like Claire—a kind, beautiful survivor with a heart a gold. He wanted forever. He would do whatever it took to show her he was the man for her. That meant fully taking on his role in the family business. He and his brothers had goals for the business that relied on him. No pressure.
Can Claire and Jace erase their personal fears and find love and belonging? Welcome back to Hawkins Ridge and Oak Mountain. Love and forever isn't just for the animals."
