Could've Said Yes (Thistle Bend #3)
Tracy March

Having just returned to Thistle Bend, Colorado, artist Ellie London is struggling to make a living from sales of her works, which feature flowers and leaves she collects during her hikes high up in the Rockies. But when she discovers a patch of beautiful, rare wildflowers and highlights them in her latest collection, sales skyrocket—online and at the Thistle Bend Farmers’ Market. She never imagined her dream would blossom so brightly. If only finding love were so easy.
Devastated by a broken engagement, rugged researcher Collin Cooper withdraws into his work at a remote biology lab. When he comes across an amazing piece of art featuring a unique variety of wildflower, he becomes inspired by a new challenge. Eager to study the specimen in its natural habitat, he spearheads a project aiming to designate the area for conservation. But when he meets the alluring artist whose livelihood depends on gathering the flowers, he’s torn. Collin has to pick a side, but his choice becomes clear when he realizes that Ellie’s happiness is the key to his own.
