New town. New life. Unexpected handywoman.



Fresh from a divorce and determined to rebuild her life on her own terms, Grace Parker arrives in the picturesque village of Thistlecroft with a golden retriever, a head full of plans, and absolutely no intention of complicating things.



Rowan Miller is the village's go-to handywoman. She's practical and grounded, and very sure of one thing: straight women are off-limits. Especially newly single ones with baggage and uncertain futures.



But Thistlecroft has a way of meddling.



Between curtain rails and village gossip, wedding mayhem, and one very determined dog, Grace and Rowan find themselves drawn into something neither of them had planned, but neither of them can ignore.



As Grace learns that starting over doesn't mean starting alone, and Rowan discovers she's far braver than she thought, they both have to decide whether love is worth the risk.



Contains mature themes.
