All Abby Cahill wanted was a quiet summer job in the beautiful Wisconsin woods. But the hospital where sheโs filling in turns out to be overcrowded, understaffed and decidedly stretched for cash. And as if she didnโt have enough on her hands, the only vacancy in town for a โsingle woman with muttโ is at the farmhouse of wildlife biologist Ethan Matthews, whose son is with him for the season, along with several newborn puppies.
Ethan is a handsome, solitary man who seems to need Abby as much as she needs him. But she shouldnโt be needing him or anyone elseโat the end of August sheโs got to go back to her job in the city teaching nursing. This is just a temporary arrangement, which is starting to feel too comfortable, too much like home.
