A widowed farm owner. A quiet carpenter with a dangerous past. A town that calls cruelty conviction.

Laurel Mayhew has three weeks to save her family apple farm before the harvest festival. The barn roof is split, the cider press is failing, and the bank is running out of patience. As a church pianist, single mother, and school-board candidate, Laurel is supposed to be the kind of woman her town can trust: steady, respectable, and certain of what she believes.

Then Eli Ransom comes back to town.

Quiet, blunt, and impossible to ignore, Eli is the only carpenter who can repair the barn in time. He is also the kind of man Laurel should keep at a distance: private, wounded, and tied to a past no one in town will explain. But as Eli fixes what is broken on the farm, he begins undoing something in Laurel too.

The closer they get, the more Laurel realizes the town that praises her may be asking her to betray the man she is falling for.

And Eli's secrets are not the only ones buried on Ransom Road.

The Carpenter at Ransom Road is Book One in a high-tension small-town romantic suspense series featuring a widowed single mother, a gruff protective carpenter, forced proximity, public scandal, no cheating, and a cliffhanger ending.
