Joys of Juniper Valerie Comer

A sheltered dance teacher discovers how the less privileged live when she falls for a struggling college dropout trying to gain custody of his half-sisters in this opposites attract romance.
Dance and music teacher Ava Santoro has led a sheltered life, and she likes it that way. Now she's ready for Mr. Right to come her way. He'll be a kindred spirit, a gentle, bookish guy, and a life-long Christian. Not someone like the somewhat-reformed temporary worker in her favorite refuge this summer. Seth Donahue is scrambling to gain permanent guardianship of his two half-sisters. Too bad he's dropped out of college - twice - and is struggling to find flexible employment. When his new neighbor offers him a job in Bridgeview's food forest, he's surprised to discover he enjoys working with edible plants. He didn't expect to meet a vivacious dancer who challenges him to choose joy over dulling the pain of his past. When Ava discovers Seth's background, it might be too late to guard her heart. How can Seth convince her he's a changed man? JOYS OF JUNIPER is the eleventh story in the Urban Farm Fresh Romance series, an off-shoot of the original Farm Fresh Romances.
