At Beaufort Manor, some things refuse to stay buried.
Magnolia Howard wasn't looking for a fresh start, just a place to hide. She left Rhode Island behind with little more than what fit in her car and landed at Beaufort Manor, a decaying estate offering just enough shelter from the wreckage of her life and plenty of mystery to keep her up at night. Renovating the place should be make it pretty, earn some cash, stay under the radar. The Manor has other plans.
Tripp Cole drifted back into Savannah for one to find out what Beaufort Manor is hiding. Posing as the handyman is easy. He knows how to handle tools, lies, and the dark history of the aging estate. Maggie Howard is harder. She's sharp, guarded, and far more perceptive than he bargained for. Every day spent working beside her makes the truth harder to keep from his beguiling boss.
Both Maggie and Tripp are trying to outrun a painful past, making the tangled web of their mounting attraction something neither one wants to admit. But when the truth is revealed and walls come crumbling down, will anything be left standing?
