It’s finally happening! After years of scrimping and saving, I have finally launched my landscaping business from the back of my garden shop. Oh, don’t get me wrong—I adore making floral arrangements, helping people figure out their soil’s right pH, and sharing a million other gardening tips in my shop…but at long last, I’ve landed the coveted contract to landscape Eastshore Isle’s community property, which means I am going to get paid to get really, really dirty!
…With real dirt. Under my nails, up to my elbows. I dunno what you were thinking.
Except…I’m kinda thinking the same thing when I bring on a new employee to help with this workload. He’s my surly, scowling upstairs neighbor who’s never wanted anything to do with me before, and it would be much easier to handle if he wasn’t also hot enough to make me pant. Who knew I had a thing for snarly orcs?
But it turns out that Memnon is hiding a secret that will make my life so much easieror ruin it. Because choosing between my dream and a chance to be with him is going to be impossible.
