Jake Walker just wants to be left alone to do his job in peace under the rustling pecan trees. He's had enough of love and heart break to last him a lifetime. And he is not thrilled about his boss' announcement to call in an outsider to "help" restore the orchard. Even if that outsider is whip-smart and comes with gorgeous green eyes. Cress McBride knows she's running away. From a broken heart and a fizzling career. But it turns out that her biggest task might not be healing the ailing trees of her grandfather's orchard. It will be cracking the tough exterior of her new co-worker, the grumpy farm manager who makes her insides melt with just one glance. Sometimes, love drives you just a little nuts... The sweet, small-town romance that begins the Midnight Bluff series from Susan E. Farris.
