When the clock strikes midnight, all bets are off, but when daylight approaches Harper knows her horses must turn back to mice, her carriage must turn back into a pumpkin and she must turn back into the baby sister in the background.

Through early hardships, simmering glances, and a town quick to judge, Lena and Nathan must learn what it means to build not just a life together, but a love that lasts. But when secrets rise and family loyalties are tested, they'll have to choose: cling to the past, or risk everything for a future forged in trust and tenderness. A heartwarming and sensual historical romance about second chances, unexpected love, and the strength found in the unlikeliest partnerships.
