Signed Paperback, Emerald Creek Book 2: The Promise Of You - Rivals To Lovers

WE HAD A DEAL: ONE NIGHT, NO NAMES, NO STRINGS (SIGNED PAPERBACK)

CHLOE
He was charming, attentive, and exactly what I needed for one unforgettable night.
Then I slipped out before sunrise, sure I’d never see him again.
Now I’m in Emerald Creek, a small town full of charm, gossip, and zero anonymity—running my late uncle’s restaurant…the one right next door to his pub.
And Justin? He acts like my presence alone is an insult.
I don’t know what I did to make him hate me, but I don’t have time to figure it out. This job is all I have.
The only problem? It’s hard to ignore the sparks that fly whenever we’re in the same room.

JUSTIN
She’s the one woman I let past my walls, and the one person I can’t forgive.
Chloe doesn’t know what her uncle’s choices cost me. She shouldn’t even be here.
But now she’s running the restaurant next door, slipping in my hometown life like she belongs here.
Even my dog likes her, which only makes it worse.
Every time I see her, I’m torn between protecting my past and risking my heart.
The trouble is, I’m not sure I can resist her.

THE PROMISE OF YOU is a steamy small-town romance with sizzling chemistry, slow-burn tension, found family, a matchmaking dog, and no third-act breakup. Book 2 in the Emerald Creek series, it can be read as a standalone.

"From beginning to end this well penned love story had me smiling and fully captivated. I loved watching these two test the bounds of their friendship and battle one another at every turn. Trying to stay in the friend zone was almost impossible for them, as the sparks bouncing around between them just could not be ignored. It was a battle they soon learned they would never win. This new to me author really knows how to create a love story that grabs ahold of you and doesn't let go, days after finishing this one and I am still thinking about these characters."
