The Bachelor Contract

New mom May Peterson can‘t believe she‘s back in her hometown. She has eight weeks to fix up, and sell, her childhood home. Just enough to say hello to her best friend and goodbye to her painful past. But in the warm, tightly-knit community of Maple Hill, it‘s impossible to avoid anyone-especially the cute "boy next door." And while May is definitely over the idea of love, his irresistible smile still makes her toes curl... When they were kids, Austin Merrick only ever saw May as his sister‘s best friend. Over time, they‘d become friends, sharing late-night chats over cheddar popcorn. Now May Peterson has returned with an adorable baby that quickly wraps him around her little finger. But after seeing the damage a broken heart can do, Austin and his brother made an agreement: to never, ever fall in love. No marriage. No kids. Ever. Now they‘re working together to fix up her old home, and sparks of attraction are making it almost impossible to keep to their no-romance rules. But when it comes to love, hearts never play by the rules...especially when it comes to finding "the one."
