Milk

Stacey Rayner has always been a good girl.At twenty-one, the sheltered Vermont farm girl has never been kissed, never been touched, never even thought about sex. Her world is sphagnum moss and carbon sequestration, prayer and purity. When she wins a prestigious fellowship to study peat bog restoration in England, her conservative family worries about sending their innocent daughter so far from home.But Stacey isn't worried. She's finally pursuing her dream.The remote Dartmoor cottage is perfect. Isolated moorland, blanket bogs right on her doorstep, and a landlord who seems like the kindest woman she's ever met. Katherine Ashwood is sophisticated, nurturing, and generous. She welcomes Stacey with open arms and a special family recipe: a sweet, creamy milk that makes everything feel warm and right.Katherine is everything Stacey's strict upbringing never prepared her for. Beautiful. Confident. Attentive in ways that make Stacey's cheeks flush and her thoughts wander to places good girls don't go.And Katherine has a secret.
