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.

Masterpiece!
Wow! I absolutely loved this book. Fantastic characters and wonderful plot. Easy to read and very beautifully written. I always enjoy reading book by this author, so I wasn’t surprised that this one was another masterpiece.
Eila Storm is determined to start an urban farm on an abandoned vacant lot next door. The only problem? She doesn’t have any permits. Ben Barber is a city construction inspector, who has autism. He lives responsibly and follows every rules.
On their first meeting he made a mistake. He tells Eila that she is violating the city code. After talking to his friends, he decides to help her obtain needed paperwork. And in the process to woo her. She is apprehensive because of her past. But he is not deterred in the slightest. He knows that she’s the one for him. I loved their passion and chemistry. They were made for each other.
Overall I loved this book very much. If you’re a fan of enemies to lovers, opposites attract romance then you’re in the right place.
