Synopsis – A Higher Standard by E.F. Dodd

Staunchly independent horsewoman Everest has her heart set on expanding the reach of her equine rescue, Second Chance Farms. But when Boston real estate developer Gideon West rolls in from the big city, hoping to buy the land next door, Everest’s plans, and a good portion of her life, are turned upside down. In E.F. Dodd’s steamy new contemporary romance, A Higher Standard [Sugar Beaver Books, May 16th, 2023], Everest and Gideon stand at odds at first, but their intense feelings for each other soon morph into a different type of heat.

Much to Everest’s dismay, Gideon is welcomed by almost everyone in her hometown of Mimosa, North Carolina. But Everest doesn’t trust his silver tongue or the promises it makes, and she’s determined to protect her town – and the rescue – from his plans. Everest Kennedy is a gigantic, yet gorgeous, thorn in Gideon’s side. She doesn’t trust him, or his intentions for Mimosa and isn’t shy about letting him – or anyone else – know it. To win the day, he’s got to woo her over to his side. Except . . . the more time he spends with Everest, it becomes less about winning the day and more about wooing the girl. Can Gideon have Everest and his development, or will one cost him the other?
