She can't stand him, but his offer is too tempting Gifted a scrap of land by a mysterious donor, Iris Blaese thinks she's lucked out with her new life in the village of Wildbrook. Until she meets her neighbor. He’s obnoxious, gorgeous, unavoidable, and worse still, he's carelessly endangering wildlife. But when she confronts him, he offers her a job… with a catch. He's a cynical billionaire with too many secrets Bennett Gastrell is hiding half his life from his friends, and half from the woman he's loved for years. Iris loathes him, or at least who she thinks he is, so when she storms into his house, furious about badgers (of all things), he grabs his opportunity. If within two months she can convince him of her conservation plans, he’ll continue to pay her exorbitant salary and leave her to run his estate. If she can't, she'll spend one night in his bed, and do anything he desires… willingly. Iris is determined to win, even if it means seducing a man she despises. It’s just two months, and his gaze does make her want things she ought not. Then a social media leak threatens to reveal Bennett’s secrets and destroy everything he’s built, including Iris' burgeoning trust… A scorching hot British enemies to lovers contemporary romance, with a sexy bet, small town vibes, grumpy/sunshine humor, and Happily Ever After.
