Mirabelle - Paperback

by Ki Stephens (Author)

Saving the orchard was always the plan. Falling for her fake husband was not.

When Isla Winslow takes over her family's failing plum orchard, Mirabelle, she's sure of only one thing: she'll save it alone or lose it on her own terms. But grants come with strings, debt collectors don't care about sentiment, and the land that raised her is running out of time.

To keep Mirabelle out of a developer's hands, Isla agrees to the most ridiculous solution she can think of: a practical marriage to the man who's been arguing with her since the day he moved to Blue Willow.

Jack Rhodes only meant to stay in town for a job. Years later, he has a renovation business, a life he loves, and one rule he keeps breaking: he can't stop showing up when Isla calls. Their marriage of convenience is supposed to be a temporary fix, nothing more than signatures and shared bills.

But as spring settles over the orchard and the fight for Mirabelle turns into a fight for their future, Isla and Jack have to decide what they're really willing to risk for the land that holds their history and the love that might finally feel like home.
