Renovating a bed and breakfast may build more than they imagined....

Nolan
No relationships. No flings with single moms. Nothing that gets me tied down--or worse yet--heartbroken. My brother suffered through pain and heartbreak, and I'm not about to follow in those footsteps. When you get too close, you get hurt. No thanks, I'm out. Now, I'm renovating a bed and breakfast--that was supposed to be mine. The only problem is that I'm right alongside Juliana Breslin, the one person who infuriates me the most. With her high, sexy heels, her curve-hugging business suit and her twin daughters, I am losing my mind and concentration. Unfortunately, her little girls are the sweetest kids I've ever met. They manage to wrap their way around every one of my fingers, thawing my cold heart. I can't help but be impressed by Julianna's grit and determination, especially in front of her jerk of an ex. She's under more pressure than one person can handle. I'll do anything for her and her girls. Everything, other than be the man in her life.

Juliana
I'm finally free of my cheating ex, living my dream of renovating a bed and breakfast. My first contractor took my money, leaving a bigger mess than before. Nothing prepared me for the only other available contractor, Nolan Morrison. He's irritable and close-minded--and incredibly irresistible. I've fallen for the tool belt, saw dust, strong forearms, and sexy scruff before. I won't do it again. No matter how attracted I am to him, my girls need stability. If I date, it will be with the right guy. It will definitely not be with one so afraid of a relationship that he pushes everyone around him away. Nolan shocks me when he draws my shy daughter out of her shell, something no one else has been able to do. Then he stands up for me in front of my ex. He's crashing through my walls faster than I can throw them up. Too bad we don't want the same things—a commitment, a family, a life together. Suddenly, Nolan's becoming everything I need.
