The Sheriff's Unwritten Rule

Sheriff Tessa Bluitt has one rule about Pike's Crossing: don't go back to the man who broke your heart. Then Wade Callahan buys the feed mill across the street. He's thirty-seven, limping, and still writing songs about her. One reunion, one keg, one hayloft, and Tessa breaks her own rule twice. Six weeks later she's standing in the feed-mill bathroom holding a test with two pink lines and a badge on her hip. Wade finds out from the town before he finds out from her. What follows is a summer of building a crib, arguing about custody before the first date, and saving a mill neither of them can afford to lose. Two stubborn people, one nosy town, and a baby nobody planned — this is a small-town romance about doing everything out of order and getting it right anyway.
