Sweet Return — Anna Jeffrey

A mesmerizing tale of a man who overcomes his past by meeting the woman he wants in his future....

He's traveled the world, but renowned photojournalist Dalton Parker has his reasons for staying away from one location: his family's Lazy P ranch. Now a calamity drags him back to Hatlow, Texas, to help out--and to face his past. But he's appalled to find that the cattle ranch has become home to a bunch of chickens. And he knows who's to blame: Joanna Walsh, the most challenging woman he's ever met.

Ever since Dalton strutted back into town, he's done his best to make Joanna's life hell. He's dead set on moving her organic egg farm off the Lazy P, and he riles her every chance he gets. But his bad behavior doesn't stop her from falling for him--or stop him from trying to get her into his bed. Yet when she learns the dark secrets of his past, she yearns to show him why returning home can be so deliciously sweet.
