Beat around the Bush

Even being her boss couldn't keep him away. After her world is upended, Oakley Rae leaves behind everything she knows to find herself and ends up in small town Bell Buckle. With the clothes on her back and a few dollars to her name, she finds herself working at a feed store where the employees are welcoming, the customers are nice, and the boss is, well, bossy. Lennon Bronson sticks to the routine he knows. Manage the local feed store, help out on his parents' ranch, and keep to himself. But with growing stress and his distracting new employee, he forgets what lines shouldn't be crossed and finds himself caring a little too much about Oakley and her safety. What started as a business relationship quickly blooms into something more, but Oakley doesn't want to ruin her chances at a fresh start by messing things up with her boss. Things aren't always as they seem, and when someone starts overstepping on Oakley's privacy, Lennon has to make a decision. Will he keep his feelings quiet, or admit how he feels to keep Oakley close and out of danger?
