About the Book
I inherited a ruined bakery, an empty bank account, and a massive, grumpy contractor who refuses to let me fail.
Ten years of fighting every battle alone. A life-savings-sunk inherited mountain-town bakery that was supposed to be a fresh start. Instead, the first contractor robs her blind, leaving frozen pipes, a caving roof, and a grand opening in four weeks.
Then Grady walks through her shattered front door. A mountain of a man in faded denim and a heavy leather toolbelt. The county contractor sent to legally condemn the building. Instead, calloused hands, permanent scowl, he starts swinging a hammer. Replaces load-bearing beams. Repairs plumbing. Carries her upstairs to bed when she passes out over her recipe books. Refuses a single dime.
Standalone passionate small-town romance. Blue-collar contractor hero, small town bakery, acts of service love language, size difference, forced proximity, extreme protective alpha.
