Scarred by a cheating, controlling ex and her conman father’s prison years, Jasmine Kennedy flees the outback for the sun-kissed haven of Dolphin Cove, Western Australia. She’ll guard her secrets from welcoming locals. She’ll forget her flirty evening with a fun-loving stranger and mind her own business. No problem.

​

Ben Stewart is rebuilding after an accident left him with a prosthetic leg. Between soul-sucking hen egg sales and part-time handyman work at the local retirement home, he’s honing his wood-crafting skills. He’s not looking for love, but after connecting with spirited mystery woman Jazzie, he’ll give it a shot. As soon as he’s steady on his feet. Foot. And finds her again.

When Jasmine discovers her one-night charmer is responsible for tanking her local egg sales and he’s booked to fix her fence, she vows to keep her distance. But their paths keep crossing, fences keep falling, and her past is closing in.

​

Will Jasmine trust Ben and the quirky Dolphin Cove community to stand with her—or will she shield her heart and run?
