Sweet Deal

Henry
Seven-year-old Ben deserves a mother who’ll stick around, not another woman who’ll bolt when things get real.
That’s why I’ve kept my distance from the curvy brunette who walks into Spice Spice Baby every morning, her smile never quite reaching those haunted eyes.
But when Willa’s ex shows up in Valentine, threatening to destroy the new life she’s building, I can’t stand back and watch.
I’m the guy who fixes things, who makes everyone feel welcome—and damn it, I want to make her feel safe.
Except getting close to Willa means risking Ben’s heart… and mine.

Willa
I came to Valentine for a fresh start, not to fall for the sexy single dad who remembers my coffee order and makes me feel seen for the first time in years.
Henry Hunter is everything my ex wasn’t—kind, steady, protective—and that terrifies me.
I can’t drag him and his sweet son into my mess.
Not when my past just rolled into town, determined to drag me back.
But when Henry looks at me like I’m worth fighting for, like I’m not broken beyond repair, I start to believe in second chances… and maybe even love.
This Valentine’s Day, can two wounded hearts find the courage to trust again, or will fear keep them from the family they both desperately need?
