One day, Callie Vanetta receives devastating news.…
She needs a liver transplant. But her doctors warn that, in her case, the chances of finding a compatible donor aren’t good.
Determined to spend whatever time she has left on her own terms, she keeps the diagnosis to herself and moves out to her late grandparents’ farm. She’s always wanted to live there. But the farm hasn’t been worked in years and she begins to fear she can’t manage it, that she’ll have to return to town.
One night, a stranger comes knocking at her door.…
He’s an attractive and mysterious drifter by the name of Levi McCloud, and he offers to trade work for a few nights’ shelter. Callie figures she doesn’t have anything to lose. He needs a place to stay until he can fix his motorcycle; she needs an extra pair of hands. The arrangement seems ideal until what was supposed to be temporary starts to look more and more permanent. Then she realizes she does have something to lose—her heart. And, although he doesn’t yet know it, Levi stands to lose even more.

"I loved it! It was a pretty quick read and a wonderful story with great characters! I have not read the other books in the series yet, but the characters were enough to make me want to read more."
— Heather (5 out of 5 stars)
" This book was ok but the story seemed to jump from one thing to another. Just as you were getting engrossed in part of the plot, bam! It jumped to a subplot with characters that weren't even in the book except for a paragraph or two previously. Not enough time spent on the main characters, sexual tension drawn out to the extream, and too many subplots that never got resolved made me rate this as only 3 stars. I'm not really interested in reading more books in this series and it's a shame because Brenda Novak is generally very good and usually holds my interest till the last page. "
