Quinn Garland ran away from Honeybells Ranch twenty years ago but now his best friend’s getting married. He only plans to stay in Bellbush long enough to see the rice thrown, but his uncle asks him for help over the summer. Catching up with the locals and even a few enemies makes for a long hot summer for Quinn, but meeting newcomer Gerti Gordan feels like a cool breeze. Reopening her grandmother’s restaurant wasn’t why Gerti came to Bellbush, that happened by accident. All she wanted to do was blend in with the locals, enjoy quiet Sundays with her dog Joe and be left alone. Too bad Quinn didn’t know that. Not only did he ruin her Sunday, but he also ruined her Monday. Gerti knew Quinn would only be in Bellbush for the summer, but his arm tattoos and cowboy hat were hard to resist. A few dances and a kiss or twelve later left them both too mesmerized to care that his stay had an expiration date. When the opportunity of a lifetime comes his way, he doesn’t think twice about taking it. With everyone’s blessing, he puts hundreds of miles between him and Bellbush only to discover miles don’t erase memories.
