She wanted one brother. She got stuck with the other.
Birdie Hale grew up alongside the Winters siblings, hopelessly crushing on one brother while constantly butting heads with the other. Everett is an overgrown, smooth-talking lughead with a knack for pushing all the wrong buttons. Fighting fire with fire and trading insults became their favorite form of communication.
Everett Winters is used to being liked. Women like him. Kids like him. Hell, even most animals like him. Birdie? Not so much. The pint-sized, sharp-tongued chicken farmer has always been a thorn in his side. And if she wants to keep pathetically mooning over his brother, he’s more than welcome to her.
But when an injury leaves Birdie unable to manage the farm alone, Everett finds himself helping the one woman who would rather feed him to her chickens.
The real trouble starts when the one they never wanted begins looking dangerously like the one they can’t live without.
Perfect for readers who like enemies-to-lovers banter, the wrong brother, forced proximity, small-town romance, and holiday rom-coms.
M.K. Condry writes contemporary romance that’s equal parts steamy and smart—designed to make you blush, laugh, and maybe text your partner something filthy. Her heroines are the kind of women you want in your corner (or at brunch), and her heroes? All dirty talk and sinful charm—the kind you’d fantasize about.
She’s a genre-hopping reader with a hard “HEA required” rule. When a story plays it too safe, she hunts down the dark, the taboo, or the downright unhinged just to crank the dial back up.
A Southern California homebody through and through, M.K. likes her bed made, her laundry folded, and her meals planned—until a plot twist pulls her under. By day, she writes. By night, she reads until reality fades.
