Publisher Description
From the #1 New York Times bestselling author of Things We Left Behind, comes a steamy small-town romance between a straight-laced house renovator and the sexy landscaper determined to break down her walls.
Can these opposites turn up the heat… without burning down the house?
House-flipping sensation and YouTube star Maggie Nichols can’t wait to dig into her next challenge. Arriving in tiny Kinship, Idaho, with only a cot and a coffeemaker, Maggie is prepared to restore a crumbling Victorian mansion in four months or less. She has her to-do lists, her blueprints, and her team. What she doesn’t have is time for sexy, laid-back landscaper Silas Wright.
The man takes flirtation to a whole new level. And he does it shirtless…sometimes pants-less. He and his service school-dropout dog are impressively persistent. But she’s not interested in putting down roots. Not when fans tune in to watch her travel the country turning dilapidated houses into dream homes. A short-term fling on the other hand could fit nicely into her calendar. After all, Maggie remembers what fun is like. Vaguely.
As their summer gets downright steamy, Silas manages to demolish the emotional walls she’s spent years building, sending Maggie into a panic. He’s the wrench in her carefully constructed plans. With the end of the project looming, she has a decision to make. But how can she stay when her entire career is built on moving on?
PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
This fun, frothy romance from Score (Things We Never Got Over) follows YouTube star Maggie Nichols, who flips houses for her channel without ever thinking about setting down roots of her own. Maggie's undaunted by the challenge posed by her latest project—flipping an immense mansion in the middle of nowhere (aka Kinship, Idaho)—but she definitely doesn't have time for "Hot Landscaper Guy" Silas Wright's flirtation (even if his dog charms her). Her to-do list is long and her desire to date is short. Hopeless romantic Silas isn't deterred; the moment he laid eyes on Maggie he was convinced she was "the one." Gleefully pushed together by their families (both biological and found), Maggie and Silas find time to romp around Kinship while finishing the house and solving a century-old local mystery. Through the endearing protagonists and their team of contractors, Score demonstrates a talent for writing strong characters who are smart, funny, and wildly appealing. The zippy dialogue and abundant humor will have readers hooked.
