Pages : 350
Book Description
All it took was one wish and ten bucks, and Deanna Drake was falling in love all over again with her high school sweetheart. Returning to her Olde Westfield home ready to battle the proposed development of her family legacy, Deanna learns that the man she despises most is behind the takeover. Cord stole her heart five years earlier and now plans to steal her rightful heritage and turn it into his next successful moneymaking venture. Falling in love again wasn't even on her radar as she boarded the LIRR and headed east out of Manhattan. Michael McCord knew he messed up bad when Deanna moved away to the city, never to return. Since then, he has been dealing with the realization that he lost the only love of his life forever. But when Deanna's father dies and leaves Cord executor of the debt-ridden and failing Drake estate, the budding developer does what he does best--he takes something that is broken and molds and mends it back to life. The only question now is what is he hoping to heal? The farm, Deanna's heart, or both? And where does he even begin? He soon decides the best way to find out is to start with ten bucks and a wish.
