Heathens to Hearts — Stacy Eaton

Jason Hayes loves working as a nurse and living in Celebration Township -- or he did until Riayn Simmers showed up in town, and a secret from his past is threatened to be exposed. Riayn Simmers is shocked to find her college love-and the man she had called a heathen-residing in the same town as her aunt. Now Riayn needs to decide if she can handle sticking around to run her aunt's bakery, My Baked Buns. Somehow Riayn and Jason must find a way to coexist in the small town, but what happens when Jason's secret is exposed and he's up to be auctioned off at the Valentine's Day Party? Will the town believe, as Riayn once did, that Jason truly is a heathen, or will he finally win over her heart for good?
