Synopsis: A single dad is distracted by the new woman in town in a sweet romance &“as cozy as a cup of chamomile tea beside the fireplace&” (Publishers Weekly). Apple Valley, Washington, is where starting over means surprising new chances, facing trouble always brings a helping hand—and the most unlikely hopes can forever come true . . . Apricot Sunshine Devereux-Miller needs to stay lost. Her eccentric aunt&’s home in Apple Valley is the perfect place to forget her cheating ex-fiancé and get her no-longer-perfect life back under control. Plus, it couldn&’t hurt to fix up the house and turn its neglected orchard into a thriving business. And if Apricot can keep deputy sheriff Simon Baylor&’s two lively young daughters out of mischief, maybe she can ignore that he&’s downright irresistible—and everything she never dreamed she&’d find . . . Simon isn&’t looking to have his heart broken again. He already has his hands full raising his girls. And lately he&’s thinking way too much about Apricot&’s take-charge energy and unwitting knack for stirring up trouble. He can&’t see a single way they could ever be right for each other. Unless they can take a crazy chance on trusting their hearts—and risking the courage to finally find their way home.
