The Summer House

A no-nonsense small-town veterinarian and an aristocratic playboy from London have nothing in common—except an undeniable attraction that could change everything.

Connor knows better than to fall for men like Ashby Sterling-Haynes. The last time he trusted a wealthy, entitled heartbreaker, he had nothing but regret. So when the youngest son of an English lord arrives in town—charming, gorgeous, and clearly trouble—Connor is determined to keep his distance. Ash is precisely the kind of man he swore never to trust again. Too bad his heart doesn’t get the message.

Ash never planned on hiding out in the Cotswolds, but a single reckless decision has left him with few options. What he didn't expect was to find Connor—the gruff, stubborn vet who challenges him at every turn. What starts as a game—a bit of harmless flirting to pass the time—quickly turns into something real. And for the first time, Ash wonders if he’s finally found a reason to stop running.

But secrets have a way of surfacing, and with their pasts casting long shadows, love might not be enough to bridge the gap between them.
