The Trouble with Perfect (The Moss Creek Society, Book 1)
A laugh-out-loud Southern small-town romance full of sass, scandal, and second chances.
When Scarlett Montgomery caught her politician fiancé in bed with another woman, she didn’t just end an engagement—she upended her perfect image and the evening news cycle. So she does the only thing that makes she goes home.
Back to Moss Creek, South Carolina.
Where the garden parties are weaponized, the gossip is faster than Wi-Fi, and the secretive Moss Creek Society still pulls the town’s strings.
Scarlett’s plan is simple—renovate the crumbling Miller Building into The Gilded Cage, a coffee-and-vinyl shop that blends modern soul with old Southern bones. But the Preservation League has other plans, starting with Henry Ashton—the by-the-book inspector who was once the only boy she ever let see her mess.
He’s structure and control. She’s chaos in lipstick and heels. When their opposing plans—and old feelings—collide, Moss Creek’s rumor mill goes into overdrive.
Between nosy neighbors, power-hungry matriarchs, and one renovation that’s turning into a second chance, Scarlett and Henry will have to decide whether perfection is worth protecting… or if love is worth breaking the rules for.
Welcome to Moss Creek—where every house has history, every family has secrets, and every scandal has a front-row audience. Once you visit, you’ll never want to leave.
