She chooses the farm for reasons she can't say aloud: it can't be seen from the road, the previous owner had a thing for fencing, and she needs to disappear. She names it The Arden Road and begins, carefully, to build something that looks like a life: French Angora rabbits, a pair of horses, a black Lab named Stella, and a spinning wheel turning in the evenings while the fire burns low.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eBut someone has been walking her fence line.

When he finally drives out to introduce himself to the woman at the old Cooper farm, he doesn't find what he expects. She is guarded, self-sufficient, and not looking for anything here.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eHe can't stop thinking about her anyway.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWhat follows is an intensely charged slow burn between two people with reasons to be careful. When a Christmas Eve blizzard traps them together on the farm, slow becomes something else entirely. But Molly's secrets didn't stay buried on their own, and whatever is circling the property wants her found. Keeping her heart hidden from Jack may be the least of her problems.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eFor readers of Nora Roberts, Kristen Ashley, and Denise Grover Swank - a deeply satisfying romance with genuine danger and serious heat.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 208\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.44 x 9 x 6 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e May 01, 2026\u003c\/div\u003e\n            ","brand":"BooksCloud","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48422267650297,"sku":"9798234041234","price":17.26,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0789\/2782\/3097\/files\/mGsiPUmWHJ9798234041234.webp?v=1779263657","url":"https:\/\/bookscloud.io\/products\/the-arden-road-paperback","provider":"BooksCloud Book Dropshipping","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
