Short story
Maddy, a travel nurse, never expected to settle down—especially not with a charming farmer in rural Minnesota. She’s focused on her job, and relationships aren’t part of the plan.
Doug, however, is impossible to ignore. After a chance encounter involving the town mascot, Kevin Bacon the pig, sparks fly between them.
But with Maddy’s temporary stay and Doug’s deep roots, the path to romance isn’t so simple. She wants something casual; he’s ready for more.
As their connection grows, Maddy faces a dilemma: stay guarded or risk her heart for something real. Is it just a fleeting fling, or could it become much more?
When her time in Minnesota runs out, will she walk away, or is Doug worth staying for?
