The Wanted One

Escape to Burton, Georgia, a quaint farm town near Savannah, where love stories thrive.

Lucie

I'm a part-time musician and budding entrepreneur who just broke free from a relationship that left my soul battered and bruised. I'm looking for a fresh start, a place to heal, and a chance to build my new dream.

When friends introduce me to Wyatt, a rugged farmer who wears his grumpiness like a badge of honor, I’m not impressed. But maybe he's grouchy for good reason: his wealthy in-laws are trying to take away his daughter. To protect Ruby, Wyatt needs a plan—a desperate one.

That's where I come in. An unconventional idea takes root—a marriage in name only. It’s a solution to our problems: a way for me to find a way forward and for Wyatt to secure his daughter's future.

Slowly but surely, our marriage of convenience becomes something more. Laughter, friendship, and shared vulnerabilities lead to an undeniable chemistry. Our lives begin to intertwine in ways we never imagined, and the connection we share kindles the possibility of a love we never expected to find.

Wyatt

My first marriage might have been an undeniable disaster, but it gave me my daughter, Ruby. She's everything to me, my little world, but there's a storm brewing. My well-to-do in-laws want to take her away. I'll do anything to keep Ruby—even the most desperate measures.

When my friends introduce me to Lucie, I realize we might be able to help each other by entering into a marriage in name only. It's an unusual arrangement, but it lets me protect my precious Ruby and offer Lucie what she needs.

But what begins as a marriage of convenience evolves into something extraordinary. As Lucie's healing heart begins to melt my icy determination to resist her, I'm faced with the possibility of a love I never thought I wanted--or needed.

It's a story of small-town life's warmth, the beautiful imperfections of two souls, and the promise of a future built on the unexpected bonds of family, love, and second chances.
