Publisher's Synopsis
Entrepreneur Vance Banning took a residence in rural Maryland to escape business pressures - and relationships with women pursuing his bank account. To the community, he's a moody, out-of-work carpenter with a chip on his shoulder. To next door neighbour Shane Abbott, he's just a man who needs a little kindness in his life. Vance's suspicions of the stunning beauty's intense interest in him start to fade when he realises Shane's compassion is honest and joyful - giving his heart permission to experience true love.
