Adverse Conditions

Never gonna happen.

Xavier swore he'd never move back to the flyspeck of a town he'd grown up in, and he kept that promise for over twenty years. 

Vincent never left. After college, he stayed in town to be close to his elderly parents. These days he's the single dad of a fifteen-year-old daughter and working two jobs. He's perfectly happy with his life. Right?

Xavier's mission is to breathe life back into Cooper Springs, but his stodgy, straight-laced, rule-following neighbor, Vincent Barone--is getting in the way.

Vincent doesn't have time to date. And he certainly wouldn't date his flashy, arrogant, neighbor whom he absolutely did not have a crush on back in high school.

Can two lifelong enemies move from hate to something more?
Then there's the matter of the grisly discovery in the woods--murder is bad for business.

Adverse Conditions is the first in the Reclaimed Hearts series, set in the wilds of the Olympic Peninsula in Washington State, it is an opposites-attract, older lovers, silver fox, enemies-to-lovers, small-town romance, with a wee bit of murder. HEA guaranteed.

Note: The Reclaimed Hearts series follows a different couple in each book but should not be read as standalones. These books should be read in order as there is ongoing suspense and mystery, and previous couples make appearances in future installments.
