Kasi Mills pushes herself to the breaking point running her family farm alone after her mother dies and her family falls apart. Exhaustion finally wins when she collapses at the farm market, only to find herself caught by Levi Storm, the man she has crushed on for years. Levi has watched Kasi from afar, buying her pies daily and following his rigid routine. Seeing her faint changes everything for him. He decides she belongs with him and refuses to back down. Kasi knows she should resist her towering new shadow, but Levi brings relief she desperately needs. He works the farm, comforts her grief, and kisses her breathless. For the first time since losing her mother, Kasi feels hope returning. Then harsh reality forces an impossible choice. She must pick between Levi, the dominant man who makes her pulse race, and the farm that holds her family legacy.
