Reluctant Hero

Alison Perry arrives in historic Cimarron, Oklahoma with dreams of converting an old Victorian house into a thriving bed and breakfast business. But the young widow and her four-year-old son soon discover their house's charms are only siding deep. The foundation is cracked, the wiring is frayed, the plumbing leaks and local legend has it that the house is haunted.

When she goes to the man who sold her the house, darkly handsome FBI agent Stefan Yale, he infuriatingly refuses to investigate. But she doesn't give up and soon he spends a night at the inn to do some ghost-busting. Even though neither of them is ready for a romance, they cannot deny the strong attraction between them. And soon Alison realizes something even more frightening than ghosts in her house: she has fallen for a man unwilling to take risks with his heart.
