The Storm

Fake dating leads to real trouble in this steamy, small-town romance.

Juliette Hart is absolutely, under no circumstances, going to fail her friends again. She's always the one not pulling her weight, coming up short when it matters, dropping the proverbial ball.

But not this time.

This time, she will do whatever it takes to get their bed and breakfast ready to open for business in spite of the faulty electrical work. And the wallpaper that just won't come off. And the massive guilt that weighs on her for not having a proper job.

Throw in the infuriating contractor her friends insist on hiring, and Jules has her work cut out for her.

Adrian Walters does not do 'complicated.' So when Jules, one of his new clients, greets him with all the warmth of a freezer, he buckles in to get the job done, with or without her cooperation. His clingy ex provides more than enough complications in his hectic life.

When Jules unexpectedly intercepts a barrage from his ex, Adrian discovers that there may be an unconventional solution to his biggest problem: fake dating Jules. Newly armed with a fake girlfriend, Adrian can do just about anything.

Except stay away from her.

He may have cleaned up one mess, but his growing crush on Jules is adding a whole new meaning to 'complicated.'

The Storm is the second book in a cozy, spicy, small-town contemporary romance series set in Cedar Springs. The books can be read in any order.
