He wasn’t looking for a family—until one shy art teacher and his son made him want forever.
Ashley Willis has enough on his plate—raising his son, teaching art, and keeping his heart carefully guarded in a town that doesn’t always embrace difference. Dating? Complicated. Risky. Possibly reckless.
Then he sees Colt Harrison. The confident, tattooed diner owner turns Ashley’s world upside down with one heated glance. Colt is bold where Ashley is cautious, steady where Ashley is unsure. For the first time in years, Ashley isn’t just thinking about responsibility—he’s thinking about desire.
Colt has built his life around long hours at the diner and zero emotional entanglements. He likes simple. Predictable. Safe. But Ashley—with his shy smile, protective instincts, and fierce love for his son—makes Colt want more than late-night hookups and empty beds.
Falling for a single dad means stepping into a ready-made family. It means risking judgment from a town still wrestling with prejudice. And when violence and small-town gossip threaten everything they’re building, Colt must decide if he’s strong enough to stand beside Ashley—not just in private, but in the light of day.
In Cedarwood, love doesn’t come easy. But when it does, it’s worth fighting for.
Includes exclusive KU bonus scenes not in the original release.
