Running Into You

by JLynn Autumn

Jameson’s life takes an unexpected turn when a career-ending injury forces him to reassess his future. Accepting his best friend’s offer, he returns to the town he called home during college. His initial thought is that Ridgefield is a temporary layover while finding his footing, but fate has a different agenda and throws a captivating woman into his path multiple times.

Some call it fate.

Others call it serendipity.

Whatever it is, he knows it’s trouble with a capital T.

Yet he can’t deny the attraction, even when he discovers she’s the one woman in Ridgefield he shouldn’t pursue.

Reviews

[Karen Wright · Rating 5 out of 5]

What a page turner! Grumpy/Sunshine, brother’s best friend, age gap. From the moment Jameson runs into Sadie, it seems the sparks fly. He was in the marines and is having trouble coping with something that happened. He goes to Ridgefield where his best friend lives and gets a job. He doesn’t realize his sister is the one he ran into at first. From there it seems Sadie and Jameson run into each other quite a few times. Wait til you see what turns their friendship into a possible relationship. Their chemistry is off the charts and they get along so well. Will Jamison’s past get in the way? Will Sadie be able to break his walls down? It’s the perfect story with a perfect ending. You won’t want to stop reading til the end!
