Heart of Stone
A New Hampshire playboy is about to meet his match in this Americana romance from the New York Times–bestselling author. Twenty-two-year-old Stephanie Hall has heard the rumors about the White Boar Inn’s playboy owner, but never met the man in person. So when circumstances force Perry—Stephanie’s brother and the inn’s manager—to put her in charge of greeting Brock on his arrival, she’s more than a little curious about the man whose very name sends the female staff atwitter.
