Hurt one way too many occasions in the past, Sloan Fairchild isn’t thinking about love. Rather, she pours all her energy into working her elegant bed-and-breakfast inn. But when her closest friend asks her to accommodate her fiance for a month, Sloan starts the doorways of Fairchild Home to Carter Madison…and fits a guy who changes her world-and her idea of herself-upside down.

Sloan attempts to ignore the feelings this handsome man stirs in her…tries to stop herself from thinking dreams that can never be. Yet when Carter reveals his personal desire, Sloan will find herself facing a heart-wrenching decision: to love for as soon as, to leave forever, or to combat to have it all.
