A Cloverleaf Meadows Standalone

Rules can't be broken if they don't exist...

Paisley

I'd considered myself carefree and content until I met my best friend's older brother.

Brody Benson has a way of wrecking my composure with a single glare. He's broody and crass and far too attractive. As if that isn't enough, he earns more money in a month than I'll likely make in my lifetime.

We couldn't be more different. That's why I settle for catching quick glances of him in passing. Meanwhile, he prefers to pretend I don't exist.

But then the unthinkable happens.

Brody

The death of my mother rocks the foundation that our rustic empire is built on. After the funeral, my sister flees to find comfort and peace. Dad shuts down, leaving me to keep the business running. That undertaking is made more challenging by Paisley Keaton.

Now, I'm constantly crossing paths with the sunny cowgirl my sister left in charge of the barn. She tries to be helpful, which only agitates my animosity. I don't miss an opportunity to tell her where to stick that overly positive attitude.

The fact that Paisley is the last woman I'd ever date promotes her to a permanent position at Benson Manor. One that needs to be filled to guarantee my ownership of the company.

Paisley will be my wife, but the only thing she'll get from me is my last name.

I seriously cannot understand why this book was published or why it was developed into an audiobook. I’m sorry Thomas, you must be excused from this review because your reading is always on point. I only downloaded because I love other books you voiced. But wow, how can this be even a plausible plot. Unlikeable characters! I’m sorry, I really tried to finish the book but every line piled on to the buyers remorse 🫣. I hate to leave a bad review because I can’t imagine how hard it is to write a book, but I hate wasted credits more.
