Ever since my husband died, life has felt like one walking nightmare. It’s been three years, and the hallways of my family’s barns still echo with the sound of his laugh. Raleigh haunts me in both my dreams and waking thoughts, but it’s all I have left of him, so I endure the brutal torture.
When I hire Jackson Arness to be the newest farmhand at Juniper Grove, I don’t expect the instant connection I feel to him. He’s sunshine personified, a bright light in the hole of grief I’ve been living in, and he fits in with everyone else on the farm like he’s been living here his whole life.
Except he’s only supposed to be here for six months. Just long enough to get us through the foaling season. He tells me he wants to make Juniper Grove his forever home—wants to make me his forever home—and I don’t know how to handle that. I made vows to another man long before Jackson ever came into my life, and if him being my employee wasn’t bad enough, the man is eleven years my junior.
Moving on from Raleigh was never in the cards for me, because a future without him is one I never wanted to consider. But Jackson has me picturing what it could be like to finally see the sunrise after the long nights of my grief. I still love my husband, though, so I’m left with an impossible choice.

Let go of the man I buried my heart with, or watch the man who’s made it beat again walk away.
