Laena is happy as a live-in companion to Ruth Spencer. Surviving a nasty divorce, she needs the isolation living in the farmhouse provides. The quiet allows her space to heal, and she can pursue her real love—pottery.
Then Ruth's eldest son returns home for the holiday season. Jack Spencer, a widower with twin sons in college, has no plans for entanglements of the romantic kind. Within minutes of his arrival, he is inundated with complaints from the females of his family and stunned by the reactions of the males to his mother's companion.
Nothing prepared him for the sexy, beautiful Laena. With his libido going into overdrive, his common sense tries to warn him off, but her allure is too strong. Jack quickly pursues Laena and discovers a depth of love and passion that he's never known before.
Laena succumbs to his sensual onslaught, but knows Jack isn't interested in "ever after" with her. They come from such different worlds and her failed marriage causes her to doubt a happy ending. When fate steps in, they are forced to look at the bigger picture and discover if their love is strong enough to overcome their differences.
