Greener Pastures
Description
Audrey Adams would do anything for her aunt Ernestine. When Ernestine suffers a stroke, Audrey takes a leave from her fast-track CPA career to care for her. Only Ernestine's hobby farm needs more tending than the patient herself. Audrey's bitten off way more than she can chew, or harvest, or plant, or... How does one do hobby farming, anyway?
Enter her neighbor Rowan Marshall, the sexy cider maker. Rowan's only too happy to come to Audrey's rescue. Which is all well and good until Audrey realizes Rowan's angling to buy the orchard that makes up more than half of Ernestine's pride and joy.
It's not long before a reluctant truce gives way to a romantic spark and forces Audrey to make the biggest decision of her life.

Person
Aurora Rey grew up in a small town in south Louisiana, daydreaming about New England. She keeps a special place in her heart for the South, especially the food and the ways women are raised to be strong, even if they're taught not to show it. After a brief dalliance with biochemistry, she completed both a B.A. and an M.A. in English.
When she's not writing or at her day job in higher education, she moonlights as a baker and is slightly addicted to Pinterest. She loves to cook and dreams of a big farmhouse in the country with a garden and some goats. She lives in Ithaca, New York, with her partner and two dogs.
