Trust

Restraint never wrote a love story worth holding on to.

Mix one grumpy Green Beret with a woman brimming with positive vibes, add a pile of good intentions, and what do you get? A man praying that his too-happy neighbor finds someone else to annoy so he can get on with his plan to avoid human contact and become the hermit he's meant to be.



Zane Hawker retired from the Army all but broken and hopes the semi-haunted home he and his brothers inherited will be the refuge he needs.

Olivia Bennett survived a tragic event in college and vowed to appreciate the blessing by spreading love and light whenever possible. Especially to those who think living like a troll under a dark bridge is a good idea.



Can Zane resist the tornado of gratitude and happiness headed his way? Will Olivia convince her grumpy neighbor that positivity is not rash-inducing and a little human connection isn't life-threatening?

Are a Ferris wheel and a mongrel dog involved in this tale of love?

Of course. It wouldn't be a romantic dramedy otherwise!

Come see what happens when opposites not only attract but find a way to trust that happiness comes in the most unexpected packages.
