Promises, promises. Maeve Arden had promised to love forever, but the marriage failed. Now, five years later, Maeve has finally found peace-peace she's promised herself to keep. The last thing she wants is a new man in her life. Her joy comes from her work-designing landscape gardens. Will Beaumont hires Maeve to design his garden. He, too, isn't looking to have anyone else in his life-no matter how much she attracts him.
He's just agreed to a platonic marriage with another woman-and it's a promise he intends to keep. But circumstances conspire to remind Will of a second promise he's made. The most important promise of them all.
