Free-spirited artist Harper
McGee is happy to go wherever the wind takes her...until her
flight pattern sends her back to Brentsville, New York for
her beloved grandmother's funeral. Harper's grief turns to
shock, however, when she discovers her grandmother has named
her sole proprietor of her candy shop, Luscious. But she has
no intention of being anchored to one place, and anyway, she
doesn't know the first thing about running a kitchen or a
business. Selling Luscious is the only viable option—
until the shop catches fire due to old wiring. Fixing the
damage requires major work, and if Harper wants to put it on
the market, she needs major help.
Thrill-seeking firefighter Aaron Fisher has never walked
away from a challenge or a friend. So when a fellow
firefighter is hurt on a call and can't complete a side job
for his contracting company, Aaron's quick to jump in. He's
done plenty of fix ‘er ups for his buddy in the past, and
despite his silver spoon upbringing and his no-holds-barred
attitude, swinging a hammer suits Aaron just fine. That is,
until he discovers the client is the same impetuous woman he
forcibly dragged from the flames of Brentsville's local
candy shop.
The more time Harper and Aaron spend at Luscious, the hotter
their attraction burns, daring them both to shed their tough
outer layers to reveal the tender desires beneath. But when
a buyer makes Harper the offer of a lifetime, she must
choose between roots and wings. Can two people who live in
the moment learn to see past the moment, or will Aaron and
Harper always live their lives pushing the line?
