Rescuing Garrett (Second Chance Ranch #1)

A matchmaker who quit believing in happy ever afters. A soldier with nothing left to give. One last chance at love.

When Mia Chester walks away from her matchmaking career in Seattle, she lands in Haven Creek, Montana, with her four best friends and a wild idea: turn a run-down farm into a rescue for animals no one else will save, and use Mia’s skills to match pets with their perfect people.

Garrett Hayes came home from the Army carrying wounds he can’t put down. He just wants to be left alone with his dog, Summit, a search-and-rescue dog who failed like him. He doesn’t plan to feel anything. He doesn’t plan to help a bunch of women build their ridiculous dream. He certainly doesn’t plan on Mia, who sees straight through his silence to his pain and keeps showing up anyway.

Can a washed-up matchmaker and a washed-out dog prove to a man who stopped believing in himself that nobody is truly beyond a second chance?

A tender, slow-burn, closed-door romance about found family, second chances, and the courage it takes to stay.
