author: Balocca, Bebe
description: Marcy's doing her best to love her lavish Baton Rouge lifestyle. She's even considering dating Carter, a man whose memberships, gold cards and real estate have earned her social circle's seal of approval. He's perfect -- well, perfectly capable of maintaining Marcy's high-priced lifestyle.
  
  Marcy's reluctant to make the safe choice. Instead she escapes to her vacation home to get some distance. Too bad the only distance she's able to focus on is the space that separates her from the smokin' hot contractor in her neighbor's yard.
  
  Sam's too young, too broke and way too country -- Marcy can't keep her hands off him. In the garden, on a trail ride, it doesn't seem to matter. Sam might be wrong for a relationship, but he's perfect for a newly widowed rebound. Marcy will get him out of her system and get on with her life. But the more time she spends in the country, the more Marcy wonders if the life she's meant for is the one she really wants.
