Love Beneath the Barnlight: A Small-Town M/M Romance of Healing, Desire, and Second Chances

By Riley Ashford

A storm brought them together.
A secret threatens to tear them apart.

When Eli Thompson moves to Clover Ridge, all he wants is a fresh start - quiet days, friendly faces, and a chance to rebuild his life after a love gone wrong. As the town's new veterinarian, he expects long hours and muddy boots... not the piercing blue eyes of a rugged farmer watching him under the barnlight.

Noah Carter doesn't do flirting - not since losing the man he loved. His farm is his world, his silence his armor. But when Eli shows up one summer night to save a newborn calf, Noah feels something stir again - something warm, dangerous, and undeniable.

Between whispered jokes and stolen glances, the two men find comfort in each other's broken places. But in a small town where gossip spreads faster than wildfire, desire comes with a cost. Secrets surface, families interfere, and love must fight to survive the storm.

Love Beneath the Barnlight is a tender, slow-burn, steamy M/M romance about healing after heartbreak, finding home in unexpected arms, and rediscovering hope under the same old stars.
