Erica Gebhart just turned forty. Eek! And everyone in town considers her a celebrity. They say the only thing sexier than her confidence is her natural beauty. But from her perspective, they are wrong. Heck, if that were true, then why was she divorced? Thirty-five and new in town, Reese Mailing's reputation is nowhere near as shiny. Gossipers peg him as a womanizing former marine with a promiscuous past and ties to the law, and he'd be the first to admit Erica is out of his league. He's not exactly the caliber of man people expect her to fall for since he is currently a farmhand. A roadside rescue puts both their reputations to the test. Can Erica look beyond society's high expectations, or will Reese live up to his reputation after all?
