A whistleblower who lost everything for doing the right thing. A widowed oil tycoon with ranching roots. A matchmaker who didn't ask either of them first.
At fifty-five, accountant Diane Foster blew the whistle on corruption at one of Seattle's top firms. It cost her the career, the reputation, and the polished life she'd spent decades building. She trades her power suits for boots and mud in Silver Sound, Alaska. She's not looking for love. She's looking for a town where integrity still matters.
Garrett Wilson lost his wife and buried himself in work. He built his oil empire from the ground up, and he runs it the same way he runs his ranch: alone. He doesn't have time for romance. Especially the kind orchestrated by Eleanor Matthews, the town's matchmaking matriarch.
Eleanor disagrees.
Diane and Garrett are stubborn, guarded, and certain they don't need anyone. Eleanor's three-month match forces them into the same orbit. The connection is slow. It's tender. And it tests every wall they've spent years building.
Tropes: Matchmaker scheme - Slow burn - Second chance at love - Later-in-life romance - Whistleblower heroine - Wealthy rancher - Forced proximity - Small-town Alaska - HEA guaranteed
Perfect for fans of Hope Holloway and Annie Cabot.
