Rustic Romances #2

A Fling Gone Wrong

Rate this book
Sharon Higgins is ready for an adventure. Flying from the UK to visit her best friend in the States, she’s got a bucket list filled with biker bars, hot rides, and even hotter men. But Fate throws her a curveball when she boards the plane and finds herself seated next to her dream man, grumpy, brooding, and irresistibly sexy.

Griffin Schroeder isn’t exactly in a party mood. After six months training with London’s best cheesemakers, he’s headed home to Wisconsin, burdened by the future of his family’s historic cheese shop. He’s resigned to his fate, until Sharon plops into the seat beside him and shocks him out of his gloomy thoughts with her sassy humor and bold charm.

One perfect night in New York later, they go their separate ways, both assuming they’ll never see each other again. But when Sharon walks into Griffin’s cheese shop days later, sparks fly all over again. They’re polar opposites with miles and commitments between them. But maybe, just maybe, this fling gone wrong could be exactly what they both need to make things right.

Grumpy meets sunshine in this laugh-out-loud, steamy, small-town romance full of unexpected twists, undeniable chemistry, and a second chance at love neither of them saw coming!

I’m a contemporary romance author from many places, but now located in South Florida and loving every minute of it. I write steamy small town romance stories that tug at the heart and leave you wanting more. I also write what I like to read myself: spicy insta-love with a twist.

If you enjoy westerns, you'll enjoy my Love Under The Western Sky series. If you prefer the beach, try my Romancing The Keys series. Then there's my latest novella series, Rustic Romances, featuring Lumberjack John.
