Description
When it comes down to it, rats in the oven trumps Lesley's desire to never set eyes on another Brennan family member. So Lesley, a pro at property redevelopment, scrambles to Dominic Brennan's hardware store for supplies. Dominic knows poison – rat and otherwise – and he sees it in Lesley. The woman ruined his brother's life. Now that she's back in town, Dominic's afraid she'll drag up the past, the secrets, and the pain. They clash immediately, but mix in a teenage boy, a puppy, some white paint, and some loud music, and what starts as cold fury transforms into a nuclear attraction. This basic renovation becomes a major life refurbishment for them both.
