Wolf Valley Duet

I'm not interested in dating until she shows up at my shop, needing my help. After getting burned by my first wife and my ex-best friend, I uprooted my entire life and moved to a small town in North Carolina. I swore off women and dating. Any fun was only supposed to last a night. Nothing more. But then she shows up on my shop step. Sweaty, disheveled, and so angry, she's the most stunning woman I've ever laid my eyes on. There's pain in her eyes. She's running from something that hurt her. And that pain calls to something deep inside me. I do my best to stay away. To keep my distance. To only fix her truck so she can be on her way out of this town and out of my life. But fate keeps pulling us closer, and a man like me can only deny myself for so long. Winnie may be what I need to heal and move on from my failed marriage. Or she may be what completely shatters me.
