Publisher Description
I've spent my whole life as an outsider, a man bound by rules and social norms I don't understand. But there's one truth I definitely grasp: Eila Storm is the one for me.
She's wild and unpredictable and that usually sends me into a tailspin, yet I'm drawn to her like rain to a drainpipe. Eila gets me in a way nobody ever has, but she's also chaos incarnate—determined to start an urban farm on an abandoned lot … without permits.
The problem? Once I know she never filed the paperwork, I can't look away. I don't know how to turn off my rigid need to follow the rules, even if that means shutting down her business.
She says I'm choking her like a weed. So how can I let things go to earn her trust? She supercharges my central nervous system when I'm usually allergic to surprise. I crave her fiery passion more than the comfort of standard operating procedures.
I just need a little help to rewrite my own code so I can wrap Eila in understanding…and my arms.
A buttoned-up inspector falls for his polar opposite in Against the Grain, book one of the Planted and Plowed series of romantic comedies starring the Storm sisters. Love takes roots in the cracks of life's pavement and stems get spliced in these steamy books full of small-town swoon in a big city setting.

Tender And Sweet
Ben just discovered he is autistic. He’s always has trouble with touch and noise and understanding other people’s emotion. Now he understands why and is getting therapy so he is better equipped to be able to cope with hard situations better. On the day of his diagnosis, he sees a woman in a bar and feels a connection he barely understands, but he recognises that she makes him feel different. Eila has had a hard upbringing, abandoned by their mother, her and her sister’s were raised by their older sister. She’s never felt that she’s enough and is always ready for the next person to leave. These two have such a beautiful connection, they balance each other’s tensions, instinctively doing what is needed to soothe a situation. So sweet, tender and emotional with a little spice, a lot of humour, a wonderful family and a perfect HEA. I can’t wait to read how the next sister to finds love.
