Honey Hollow, not too far from DC, is the setting for this new novel. Hayes Wilder’s Grandfather has died, and he has returned for the funeral. He is shocked to learn that he was left Wilder Estates, a lot of land and money, while his half-brother, Lewis, was left the family foundation. As part of the will, Hayes has to get married, and give ten acres to his new wife, or the estate goes to Lewis, who also has to marry. Lewis is a greedy a-hole and is contesting the will. Hayes needs to find a wife and fast, and makes an offer to Catherine Foster, who recently lost her mother, is the current Miss Virgina and has a lot of debts. They have known each other their entire life. She agrees and the provide a unified front so Lewis will believe it. They get married and soon fall in love with each other and have hot sex. Not everything is fine, though, when Hayes tries to help Catherine with a personal issue, he may have gone to far. This is another great rom-com, with two characters you get engaged in, and it’s heartwarming following their story. The supporting cast of characters adds a lot to the story, and this is a great cowboy romance novel.
