Delanna Milleflores hasn’t set foot on Keramos since she was a little girl. Now her mother has died, and she’s returned only to settle and sell her estate. But Keramos has some surprising laws. To sell her farm, Delanna must first live on it for one year. And along with the land comes one Tarleton Tanner, heir to the adjoining land. A man who, at the moment of her mother’s death, became Delanna’s husband. He has plans of his own for their co-joined estates. Delanna is determined that she will inherit and that this marriage to the Tanner bumpkin will be in name only. Their clashing personalities and the conflicting goals threaten to put both their plans asunder, heatedly and repeatedly.
