Turned down for her dream job, large-animal vet Bellamy Haile is determined to drown her sorrows at the bottom of a tequila bottle—and underneath the ripped bod of the gorgeous stranger she just met in the liquor store. She'll have time enough to nurse mild regret later, when she takes over her uncle's small practice in Serenity, Georgia. Settled into an old house bequeathed by her grandmother, Bellamy doesn't expect one of her first vet calls to bring her face-to-face with her one-night stand. Eli Carter happens to live nearby...and he's more than willing to pick up where they left off. As Eli and his family welcome her into their hearts and homes, Bellamy experiences a sort of love and acceptance she's never known. But even hot nights in Eli's bed may not be enough to make her choose small-town Serenity when a second chance at her dream job comes calling.
