Never Expected You

When Zach Mason, former army sergeant turned veterinarian for war-wounded animals, returns home, the decision to stay is easy. But convincing the only other vet in town to hire him is a good deal harder. It doesn't help that the beautiful, intelligent, and stubborn Stella Lane is determined to make his life hell. Stella doesn't take outside help easily—she's been let down in the past, most recently by her ex, just as she'd begun to plan their wedding. Trusting Zach with her animals is one thing, but trusting him with more is a hard pass. Too bad the handsome vet is nothing but temptation. And her new roommate . . . Contains mature themes.
