SLOW BURN

After achieving all his dreams, Jacob Coleman's life took an unexpected and devastating turn. Now, living in the quiet town of Red Falls, Oregon, he dedicates himself to rescuing and rehabilitating abused animals. As a result, his focus is solely on their well-being, leaving no room for romantic pursuits in his life. He believed he was a man scarred both physically and emotionally, unworthy of love. However, his perception changed when the new veterinarian, Vivienne Sweet, arrived in town. With a passion for working with farm animals since childhood, Vivienne's dream was to make a difference in their lives. To her, The Eden animal shelter, where she could spend her free time with her bright seven-year-old daughter Taylor, seemed like the perfect place. And then, there was Jacob - the enigmatic and private owner of the shelter, whom she found intriguingly perfect in his reserve. Despite Jacob's initial resistance, Vivienne was determined. She had set her sights on getting to know him intimately, and nothing was going to stop her from achieving her goal. As Vivienne relentlessly pursued her objective, she hoped to break through Jacob's walls and show him that love was still possible, even in the face of his past traumas.
