Publisher Description
He's drowning in a life shaped for someone else. She never expected one reckless night to change everything.
Walt Sheffield knows exactly how to play the part people expect: tailored suits, polished smiles, and the perfect script for every room he walks into. Yet the practiced charm is suffocating him.
His father's death brings financial ruin and exile from elite society — and to Walt's surprise, it feels like freedom. Delivering mail gives him space to breathe, space to think, and far too much time to obsess over the woman who refused to perform for anyone.
Orla Brady is building the career she fought hard to earn. She's on the cusp of a promotion in an industry that constantly underestimates women, part of a loud family that never minds its business, and absolutely unprepared for the consequences of one reckless night with a stranger in an ill-fitting tux.
Now she's pregnant… and she can't even find the slick charmer who turned her world upside down.
Until he shows up as her new mailman.
Then he keeps showing up — because for the first time in his life, Walt is living honestly, and he's desperate to prove he's worth her time.
Turns out becoming a real person is terrifying when someone worth loving is watching.
Live Wire is a steamy romantic comedy featuring a surprise pregnancy, explosive chemistry, and the broody Brady family falling hard when they least expect it.

Customer Reviews
Orla’s and Walt’s is beautiful and full of hope.
A truly fantastic book! I could not put it down.
I loved Walt and Orla from the first pages of the book.
I loved how circumstances changed them and eventually brought them together.
One of my favourite moments was when Orla and Walt reconnect on Walt’s mail carrier run in her street.
Walt is so adorable when he rescues and adopts Pudding, his rabbit.
One of funniest scenes in the book is when Walt takes Orla to the Bingo Fundraiser for the Rabbit Rescue and meets all his friends.
Orla is my hero. She finishes her last engineering exam, goes into labour and with Walt’s help delivers baby, Nora in the parking lot.
The scenes between Walt, Orla, baby, Nora and Pudding are truly beautiful.
This book was full of loss, sadness, grief, joy, happiness and hope.
I recommend it to other readers!
