Cora Hamilton needed to get out of town fast!
With her ex due out of prison, the last thing she wants is to be around when he comes knocking on her door. For him, Cora is unfinished business. She needs to run.
When her new boss finds her sleeping in her car in the parking lot of his bbq restaurant in Wishbone, Texas, Cora questions her decision.
She's a day late and handsome Duke Wilson is understandably unimpressed. Cora's no pushover and she's damn good at her job, as she intends to prove if he'll just give her a chance.
Duke knew he was taking a risk hiring his new manager sight unseen but Cora Hamilton's resume and references were the best. If his restaurant is to be the success he wants and his life less stressful, he needs her. Despite the fact she let him down before she even started work, his gut tells him she's as desperate for a break as he is.
But can he get past her lies and trust her after her abysmal start and let her do the job he hired her for?
