Third book from Hart Brothers.
This could be standalone and all of Hart brother's has been abused by their father a.k.a. Dragon ever since he was adopted at young age. Ever since Dragon's death, he decided to move to South Carolina to work for his brother's HTS new branch.
While he was searching for a house, he meets very strange home owner Carter. She was very different looking the most of the girls he is use to. She was wearing hideous clothes and suggests very weird proposition for him regarding the house.
Carter lost everyone she loved 4 years ago in unexpected hurricane while she was attending a seminar. She wasn't living the life, she was just existing. Upkeep of her house is draining her finances and she doesn't have any other choice than to sell the house that connects to her family. She was determined to sell but she is afraid she would lose her connection so she propose new owner with unusual requests.
Carter intregues Kestrel and he feels she is very special in different ways. So he decided to take her offer and buy the house and that's start of their unique relationship. They are not sure what they are but enjoying each others company.
Carter is a brilliant researcher and in the midst of finding the cure for cancer and while she is very devoted in this fields, she is naive in relationship. Kestrel sees beyond her smart, nerdiness and sees beautiful soul.
They are falling in love but nothing comes easy for both of them. They will have to trust each other for their HEA. However, it may cost more than what they expected.
Hart brothers have enough problems and they find all these women who could help them but they do have enough of their troubles on their own. It was emotional until the very end. It was good to see Kolson and Gabby. Suspense until the end. I can't wait to read about his youngest brother.
