Farm of Fancy

Gabe Byrne likes the simple life. Quiet, coffee, and the company of his horse are all he needs. When his mare takes sick, Gabe calls David Meloy, the town's new veterinarian—who's so gorgeous Gabe can barely think straight. In a town like Armstrong, it's hard to find people Gabe can trust. After a tough break-up and a long recovery from cancer, Gabe knows this attraction isn't a complication he needs, and he'll do what it takes to protect himself from more heartbreak. David Meloy might be new to small-town life, but after the sudden passing of his husband, a fresh start is exactly what he needs. With his own vet practice and a new dog to keep him company, life is starting to feel good again. If only Gabe Byrne would stop insulting him in public. David's a professional, so when the call comes about Gabe's sick mare, David answers—even if it means getting stuck in a blizzard. Trapped together by the storm, can they look past their arguments to find a connection? Or will David's conflicted feelings, Gabe's insecurities, and the hard realities of small-town life rise to stand in their way? FARM OF FANCY is an 74,000-word meet-ugly-turned-cute standalone HEA romance.
