An impossible task, an undeniable attraction, an unlikely hero in this twist on Rumplestiltskin.
Alone and desperate, Kiernan Rafferty had left his homeland, his friends, and even his name behind when he stumbled across a remote farm that perfect refuge for a man on the run. The Webb farm has all a man could want but Kiernan knows that every day he lingers is putting himself at risk. But Kiernan can’t pull himself away.

But then a savior appears from the most unlikely of places…
