Publisher Description
'A refreshing romance with a strong sense of setting and a charismatic cast' Publishers Weekly on How to Love Your Neighbour
A frothy, effervescent rom-com from sparkling romance author Sophie Sullivan.
............................................
Hailey Sharp has a one-track mind:
Get her salad shop off the ground.
Do everything possible to make it a success.
Repeat.
With a head full of entrepreneurial ideas and a bad ex in her rear-view mirror, Hailey's one and only focus is living life the way she wants to. No distractions.
For Wes Jansen, companionship, not passion, is the name of the game. After the pain from his parents' angry divorce and a string of lacklustre first dates, he'd much rather find someone who he likes, but won't love.
Following a disastrous meet cute that wasn't even intended for them, Hailey and Wes go their separate ways. But when Wes finds Hailey to apologize for his behaviour, they strike up a friendship - and that's all it will ever be.
Hailey doesn't want any distractions.
Wes doesn't want to fall in love.
What could possibly go wrong?

PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
Sullivan charms in her final Jansen Brothers romance (after How to Love Your Neighbor). Hailey Sharp left Hollywood and a bad relationship to settle in the Southern California town of San Verde, where she opens a salad shop. She soon meets Wesley Jansen, a businessman and New York City transplant who heads the intriguingly named Squishy Cat Industries with his two brothers. After getting off on the wrong foot, Hailey and Wesley strike up a fast friendship—and the commitment-averse pair are each determined that's all their relationship will ever be. They struggle (unsuccessfully) to fight their growing attraction—right up until Hailey accidentally lets her feelings slip and sends Wes running scared. Their fairly straightforward friends-to-lovers romance is enhanced by a robust supporting cast (which includes the starring couples from the earlier books) and numerous laugh-out-loud moments, including an autocorrect fail that puts a dirty spin on pretzel sticks. It's a fun, breezy romp.
