BLURB:
Everyone knows that if there was an award for biggest small town grump, Liam Ashton would win for Hope Crest, Pennsylvania no questions asked.
The reclusive, brooding farmer might be part of the family business and do anything for those closest to him, but his bark keeps almost everyone else away. Perhaps that’s what happens when you fall in love at first sight but aren’t allowed to be with the soulmate you didn’t realize you were looking for.
When the forbidden woman of his dreams blows back into town, he might finally get a shot to convince her they’re destined to be together. Only, her denials and refusals won’t let him get anywhere near her.
Gabrielle Murphy swore she’d never return to the town where she took her first teaching job. She’d done the right thing, once upon a time, and there is no room to question what if.
But when the only woman who ever understood her passes and leaves her to clean up the pieces, she can’t exactly say no. Get in, fulfill her grandmother’s wishes, and get out. That’s the plan. Until Liam confronts her and they give in to the unmatched inferno that’s been blazing between them forever.
Even though there is nothing standing in the way of a happily ever after this time, Gabrielle still can’t let this surly version of the Liam she once knew love her completely.
Until a surprise binds them to each other for the foreseeable future, and they have to forgive enough to move forward. But just as the ice around their hearts starts to thaw, darker outside forces threaten to ruin their chance before it’s even taken.

🧡Review🧡
Since he was a teenager Liam has been in love with Gabrielle and he didn’t mind that she was his teacher, but she didn’t feel the same way. It will be more than a decade later before she comes back into his life and this time, he is determined to convince her that they have always belonged together.
Even though the age difference between Gabrielle and Liam is minimal there was still an imbalance because of the student/teacher relationship. She had feelings for him as well, so she needed to distance herself from the situation but now that she has returned, she finds herself conflicted between her feelings for Liam and what she believes is the right thing to do.
Liam is all in when it comes to Gabrielle, and he isn’t about to let the past compromise the future they could have together even if they have some turmoil and setbacks to overcome along the way.
