Description
Welcome back to the quirky, romantic small town of Blue Moon Bend: home to this enticing romantic comedy series from the New York Times and USA Today bestselling author of Things We Never Got Over and the fan-favourite Riley Thorn books.
***
A sweet, wacky romantic comedy between a prickly, grudge-holding, thirty-something heroine who is nobody's doormat and the former crush looking for a second chance.
Davis Gates. Naked. Tossing her a handful of orgasms like he was on a lust-themed parade float.
Innkeeper Eden has got it all. Well, mostly. She's cornered the hospitality market in Blue Moon, offering visitors a place to stay in her hippie-dippie hometown. Business is booming, she's close - but not too close - to family, and she's got her dogs and her friends to keep her company.
Unfortunately, she also shares a property line with the crush who broke her teenage heart.
Davis spends his days wrestling control of the family winery from his father's semi-retired hands. He doesn't have time for things like dating or dealing with his grudge-holding next-door neighbour. Besides, they're just the latest generation to participate in their families' fifty-year feud.
When the Beautification Committee resorts to an unprecedented - and disastrous - matchmaking scheme, enemies Eden and Davis join forces to take them down. These two frenemies can survive being fake lovers for a few weeks if it means teaching their neighbours that all's not fair in love and war.
Lucy Score brings to life the "nosiest small town in upstate New York" in this charming and compelling romantic comedy - the sixth in a series of romcom romps through the small but lively town of Blue Moon Bend.
