Leaf It to Me

Sometimes the road less traveled is the one that leads you home. Candace Judd is part of a legacy. One she up and left when she turned eighteen. While she spent the last seven years collecting degrees and achieving her dreams, her family's apple farm moved on without her. But now she's back and nothing about Kirby Falls is how she remembers it-including her family's newest employee, a certifiable blast from the past. A quiet boy turned flannel-covered mountain man and her distractingly handsome coworker. Mark Mercer leads a quiet life. He works at Judd's Orchard. He keeps his head down and avoids the gossip that's been chasing him around since his divorce. But when his high school crush returns to Kirby Falls unexpectedly, he realizes there is nothing more humbling than having the past come back to bite you. Or even worse, forget you altogether. Desperate to prove herself, Candace works to find her footing with her family while Mark struggles with the desire to hide himself away. When she takes the time to really look, Candace discovers more than an ally in the rugged farmer. As days at the orchard become nights spent together under the stars, Mark begins to see that his dream girl is more than the prom queen he remembers. While life shines brighter with Candace by his side, Mark must decide if he'd rather live in the shadows or face his fears once and for all. Book #2 in the Kirby Falls small-town contemporary series follows the steamy, slow-burn romance between the town golden girl and the local pariah. 'Leaf It to Me' is a full-length romantic comedy filled with humor, heat, and a guaranteed happily ever after.
