The Tick-tock Between You and Me. Canterbury Romance, #1

Darby thought she had love all figured out until she heard the tick-tock of a clock. Darby Elliott thinks she's in love with her long-distance boyfriend until he arrives on her doorstep. Now, she's not so sure about him or how to get her car and money back. Which is embarrassing, because she's a hot-shot accountant and money isn't supposed to slip through her fingers... or into her boyfriend's wallet.
Chad George and his girlfriend, Jessica have been together since they were kids. The trouble is, Jessica thinks Chad should convert his grandfather's struggling horse ranch into a cosmetic surgery recovery spa, and Chad thinks his grandfather should maintain the ranch as he wishes. When Chad's grandfather hires Darby, she discovers the ranch is full of untapped potential and hidden treasures including a clock that only seems to tick when she and Chad are together.
Does the clock have a hidden message? Can Darby and Chad save the ranch before time runs out?
