Sandy Gray felt as dull as her name. A quiet New York City librarian, she never expected much excitement-until life handed her a golden ticket. Marriage to a charming, successful lawyer promised a bright future, but soon enough, the sparkle faded. Motherhood followed, and so did a return to the monotony she thought she had escaped.Then, betrayal shatters her world. With nothing but a packed car and her kids in tow, Sandy flees to a secluded Tennessee hay farm, determined to start fresh. But peace is short-lived. Just as she begins to find her footing, ghosts of her past come knocking-her estranged husband, an old flame, and two unexpected admirers: a crusty veterinarian and a rugged farmer.Suddenly, the woman who once felt invisible is at the center of a whirlwind of love, choices, and complications. As Sandy juggles emotions, unexpected twists, and the responsibility of carving out a new life, she discovers something far more important than romance-her own strength.She doesn't need a man to complete her. But does she want one by her side? And if so, which one?One decision. Four men. A journey of self-discovery that leads to a choice that just might change everything.
